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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 30, 2023The p.R297W variant (also known as c.889C>T), located in coding exon 8 of the CFTR gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 889. The arginine at codon 297 is replaced by tryptophan, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant was described in an individual with congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens, who reportedly had additional CFTR variants detected, including the 5T allele in trans and homozygous p.Q1352H alleles (Dörk T et al. Hum Genet, 1997 Sep;100:365-77). This variant was also detected in a pediatric chronic pancreatitis cohort in one case who was heterozygous for this variant with no additional variants reported (Sultan M et al. J Pediatr Gastroenterol Nutr, 2012 May;54:645-50). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpSep 06, 2022This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 297 of the CFTR protein (p.Arg297Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs397508814, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with chronic or recurrent pancreatitis and congenital absence of the vas deferens (PMID: 9272157, 22094894). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 54080). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesNov 28, 2023The CFTR c.889C>T; p.Arg297Trp variant (rs397508814) is reported in the literature in individuals with CFTR-related disorders including congenital absence of vas deferens and pancreatitis (Dork 1997, Sultan 2012, Yang 2015). This variant is also reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 54080). It is observed in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.005% (12/250500 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database (v2.1.1). Computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.859). However, due to limited clinical and functional data, the significance of this variant is uncertain at this time.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJul 25, 2023Variant summary: CFTR c.889C>T (p.Arg297Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the ABC transporter type 1, transmembrane domain (IPR011527) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.8e-05 in 250500 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in CFTR causing Non-Classic Cystic Fibrosis (4.8e-05 vs 0.013), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.889C>T has been reported in the literature as a compound heterozygous genotype with the 5T allele on the background of a homozygous c.4056G>C (p.Gln1352His) genotype in an individual affected with CBAVD (Dork_1997). This finding is interpreted as a complex allele in cis with c.4056G>C (p.Gln1352His). It has also been reported as a non-informative (second allele not specified) genotype in an individual with chronic pancreatitis (CP) (Sultan_2012). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 9272157, 19810821, 22094894, 26277102). Six submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
