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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 22 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
• PP5: Variant 7-117603783-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-117603783-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 411122.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	curation	CFTR-France	Jan 29, 2018	- -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Aug 05, 2016	The c.2908+1G>A intronic variant results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 17 of the CFTR gene. This alteration was first reported in an African American individual with cystic fibrosis (CF), however a second alteration was not reported (Schrijver et al. J Mol Diagn. 2016;18(1):39-50). This variant was not reported in population based cohorts in the following databases: Database of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (dbSNP), NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), and 1000 Genomes Project. In the ESP, this variant was not observed in 6503 samples (13006 alleles) with coverage at this position. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. Using the BDGP and ESEfinder splice site prediction tools, this alteration abolishes the splice donor splice site; however, direct evidence is unavailable. Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as likely pathogenic. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Jul 11, 2018	This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 17 of the CFTR gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant has been reported in the literature in an individual with cystic fibrosis (PMID: 26708955). In summary, donor and acceptor splice site variants are typically loss-of-function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in CFTR are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23974870, 12940920). However, without additional functional and/or genetic data, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: CFTR c.2908+1G>A is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Three predict the variant abolishes the canonical 5' splicing donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant was absent in 251120 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.2908+1G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with cystic fibrosis (example: Schrijver_2016). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Four clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014and all classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
