The CFTR c.374T>C; p.Ile125Thr variant (rs141723617, ClinVar variation ID: 53802) is reported in the literature in the heterozygous state in individuals affected with cystic fibrosis or CFTR-related disorders such as bronchiectasis and pancreatitis, but its clinical significance was not determined (Chang 2007, Kilinc 2002, Lee 2003, Nakano 2015, Ngiam 2006, Zhang 2022). The p.Ile125Thr variant has also been reported in trans and in cis to pathogenic variants in an individual with pancreatic sufficient cystic fibrosis (Shen 2022). Additionally, this variant has been seen in trans to p.Phe508del in an individual with cystic fibrosis (Shen 2022). This variant is found in the East Asian population with an allele frequency of 0.96% (192/19944 alleles, including a single homozygote) in the Genome Aggregation Database (v2.1.1). Computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.668). Due to conflicting information and lack of functional data, the significance of the p.Ile125Thr variant is uncertain at this time. References: Chang M et al.

The CFTR c.374T>C (p.Ile125Thr) variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals with cystic fibrosis ((PMID: 12439892 (2002), 26437683 (2015)), pancreatitis (PMID: 12952861 (2003), 25492507 (2015), 25869325 (2015), 29173301 (2017)), bronchiectasis (PMID: 12952861 (2003), 16678503 (2006), 29997923 (2018)) as well as in healthy individuals (PMID: 12952861 (2003), 16678503 (2006), 16778407 (2006), 29997923 (2018)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.011 (155/14424 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
Cystic fibrosis Uncertain:1Benign:3
- -
This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

CFTR-related disorder Uncertain:1Benign:1
This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
This variant is classified as likely benign based on ACMG/AMP sequence variant interpretation guidelines (Richards et al. 2015 PMID: 25741868, with internal and published modifications). -

Variant summary: CFTR c.374T>C (p.Ile125Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the ABC transporter type 1, transmembrane domain (IPR011527) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00074 in 252614 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0094 within the East Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygote. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in CFTR causing Cystic Fibrosis, allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.374T>C has been reported in the literature in sequencing studies of healthy controls and individuals affected with Cystic Fibrosis, pancreatitis of idiopathic, chronic, acute and autoimmume etiologies, and as a VUS reported in settings of carrier screening (example, Kilinc_2002, Chang_2007, Kim_2010, Ngiam_2006, Jang_2013, Nakano_2015, Chang_2015, Lee_2003, DeWachter_2017, Archibald_2017, Xiao_2017, Guan_2018, Schrijver_2016). Specifically, this variant was reported in trans with p.F508del in a female patient of Chinese ethnicity who was reportedly pancreatic sufficient and had sweat chloride of < 60 mmol/L (36mmol/L) (DeWachter_2017). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Cystic Fibrosis. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect resulted in approximately 56.3 % of normal chloride channel conductance relative to wild type (e.g., Bihler_2024). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 29261177, 25869325, 17539902, 28830496, 29997923, 23514810, 12439892, 20879059, 12952861, 28348582, 25492507, 16678503, 27324553, 25735457, 26708955, 26437683, 29173301, 38388235). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 53802). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
