The NM_000492.4(CFTR):c.2900T>C (p.Leu967Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The gene CFTR is a tumor suppressor gene (CancerMine: 18 TSG, 1 driver citations). The gene CFTR is a cancer driver gene (CancerMine: 18 TSG, 1 driver citations). The variant allele was found at a cumulative frequency of 0.00135 (AC=2,180) in the gnomAD database across 1,613,804 control chromosomes, including 1 homozygote. The grpmax filtering allele frequency (95% CI) is 0.0016. In-silico predictor (REVEL) classifies this variant as likely damaging/oncogenic. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain Significance (no review stars). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV000603067: Functional assays suggest this variant has a modest or no effect on chloride channel activity, but exhibits decreased bicarbonate transport (LaRusch 2014, Raraigh 2018). PMID:25033378 PMID:29805046". Other variants at the same amino acid position have been reported in ClinVar (not pathogenic): p.L967= (synonymous): Likely_benign (ClinVar VariationId 495916, 2 stars); p.L967= (synonymous): Likely_benign (ClinVar VariationId 2729011, 1 star) The variant has been observed in cBioPortal in 1 sample across 1 study and 1 cancer type; somatic enrichment level: NONE (Observed in at most one deduplicated cBioPortal case.). This exact variant is curated in the UniProt human variants database as Uncertain Significance.

Genes affected
CFTR (HGNC:1884): (CF transmembrane conductance regulator) This gene encodes a member of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter superfamily. The encoded protein functions as a chloride channel, making it unique among members of this protein family, and controls ion and water secretion and absorption in epithelial tissues. Channel activation is mediated by cycles of regulatory domain phosphorylation, ATP-binding by the nucleotide-binding domains, and ATP hydrolysis. Mutations in this gene cause cystic fibrosis, the most common lethal genetic disorder in populations of Northern European descent. The most frequently occurring mutation in cystic fibrosis, DeltaF508, results in impaired folding and trafficking of the encoded protein. Multiple pseudogenes have been identified in the human genome. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

Classification according to ACGS-UK Somatic Oncogenicity v2025

Classification was made for transcript:

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 3 points.

O6Computational evidence supports deleterious effect
Computational evidence supports a deleterious/oncogenic effect; Missense variant — primary computational scorer supports an oncogenic/deleterious effect
O7Mutational hotspot or critical domain
Supporting: cancerhotspots.org hit, critical domain, or missense neighbourhood hotspot; No cancerhotspots.org hit at this position; UniProt domain: 0 pathogenic, 0 benign.; ±8 AA neighbourhood: 5 pathogenic, 0 benign (OR vs. background: 55.0); Variant does not impact splicing — splice-hotspot path not applicable
O8Missense constraint in gene or region
Missense in gene/domain constrained for missense variation where missense is common disease mechanism (O8 supporting); Gene/disease mechanism: missense is a common mechanism of oncogenesis; gnomAD missense Z-score: -1.07 (threshold ≥3.09 for constraint); Domain-level constraint: variant is in a critically constrained functional domain (IS_AT_CRITICAL_DOMAIN)
