The ENST00000673785.1(CFTR):c.-490-37979T>A variant causes a intron change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. Note: ENST00000673785.1 is not a MANE Select or MANE Plus Clinical transcript for CFTR; the reported annotation may differ from that of the MANE-designated reference transcript for this gene. 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 0.00000657 (AC=1) in the gnomAD database across 152,270 control chromosomes (no homozygotes observed). The grpmax filtering allele frequency (95% CI) is 0.000207. In-silico predictor (BayesDel (noAF)) classifies this variant as likely benign. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar.

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]
