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]

Significance:Pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu218*) 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 (rs397508777, gnomAD 0.03%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of cystic fibrosis (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54035). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: CFTR c.653T>A (p.Leu218X) 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 3.2e-05 in 251446 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.653T>A has been reported in the literature in multiple homozygous and heterozygous individuals affected with Cystic Fibrosis (e.g.McCormick_2002, Mei-Zahav_2005, Sharma_2009, Zampoli_2021). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Three submitters have provided assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
