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]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Thr1220Lysfs*8) in the CFTR gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CFTR are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 1695717, 7691345, 9725922). This variant is present in population databases (rs121908811, gnomAD 0.007%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with cystic fibrosis (PMID: 9150159, 23261175, 23974870). This variant is also known as c.3791delC. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 7124). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The c.3659delC pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 22 of the CFTR gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 3659, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.T1220Kfs*8). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with an elevated sweat chloride level in The Clinical and Functional TRanslation of CFTR (CFTR2) database (available at http://cftr2.org. Accessed 07/26/2022). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

Variant summary: CFTR c.3659delC (p.Thr1220LysfsX8) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 250166 control chromosomes. c.3659delC has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Cystic Fibrosis (e.g. Sosnay_2013). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
