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]

Inframe deletion located in a nonrepeat region was predicted to change the length of the protein and disrupt normal protein function. The variant has been reported multiple times as an established pathogenic variant (ClinVar ID: VCV000007105 / PMID: 2475911 / 3billion dataset). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. - |
| Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | research | UNC Molecular Genetics Laboratory, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill | - | The CFTR c.1521_1523delCTT (p.F508del) variant is the most common pathogenic CFTR variant (PMID: 20301428, 2233932). - |
| Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Mar 06, 2023 | The c.1521_1523delCTT (p.F508del) alteration is located in coding exon 11 of the CFTR gene, results from an in-frame CTT deletion at nucleotide positions 1521 to 1523. This results in the deletion of a phenylalanine residue at codon 508. Based on data from gnomAD, the c.1521_1523delCTT allele has an overall frequency of 0.717% (2027/282630) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 1.238% (1598/129034) of European (non-Finnish) alleles. This mutation accounts for approximately 70% of cystic fibrosis chromosomes worldwide and is associated with elevated sweat chloride levels, lung disease, pancreatic insufficiency, and Pseudomonas infection (Sosnay, 2013). Disease expression is variable, even among individuals homozygous for p.F508del (Bronsveld, 2001). In vitro functional studies showed this mutation results in significantly reduced chloride conductance (Sosnay, 2013). It is a class II mutation which results in a misfolded CFTR protein that is subsequently degraded (Esposito, 2016). This alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. - |
| Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Victorian Clinical Genetics Services, Murdoch Childrens Research Institute | Sep 03, 2018 | A heterozygous inframe deletion variant, NM_000492.3(CFTR):c.1521_1523del, has been identified in exon 11 of 27 in the CFTR gene. The variant is predicted to result in an inframe deletion of a single amino acid at position 508 of the protein, NP_000483.3(CFTR):p.(Phe508del). The phenylalanine at this position has very high conservation (UCSC, 100 vertebrates), and is located in the ABC transporter 1 functional domain. This variant is present in the gnomAD database at a frequency of 0.7% (2027 heterozygotes, 1 homozygote), and has been previously reported multiple times in individuals with cystic fibrosis, being the most common causative variant in the CFTR gene (ClinVar; Egan, ME. et al. (2016)). Analysis of parental samples indicated this variant was maternally inherited. Based on information available at the time of curation, this variant has been classified as PATHOGENIC. - |

| Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Knight Diagnostic Laboratories, Oregon Health and Sciences University | Mar 30, 2016 | The c.1521_1523delCTT (p.Phe508del), also known as ΔF508, is an in-frame deletion in the CFTR gene. This variant is the most common CF-causing mutation, accounting for an estimated 72% of mutant alleles in people of European ancestry (Watson et al., 2004). This p.Phe508del variant is classified as a class II mutation that blocks the processing of the CFTR protein (Welsh et al., 2001). This variant has been reported at low frequencies (1.0%) in 1000 Genomes and ExAc population databases, but has not been reported in the Exome Sequencing Project database (ESP). The CFTR2 database has 32,833 patients that have this mutation, which they classify as CF-causing (http://www.cftr2.org/mutation.php?view=general&mutation_id=1). Therefore, this collective evidence supports the classification of the c.1521_1523delCTT (p.Phe508del) as a recessive pathogenic variant for Cystic fibrosis. - |

| Pathogenic, no assertion criteria provided | clinical testing | Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System | - | The CFTR p.F508del variant is the most common variant known to cause cystic fibrosis (CF); this variant acounts for ~70% of CFTR variants and is present in approximately 85% of CF patients worldwide (Maiuri_2015_PMID:26046070). The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs113993960) and ClinVar (classified as pathogenic by the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics, Laboratory for Molecular Medicine and 20+ other laboratories). The variant was identified in control databases in 2027 of 282630 chromosomes (1 homozygous) at a frequency of 0.007172 (Genome Aggregation Database March 6, 2019, v2.1.1). The variant was observed in the following populations: European (non-Finnish) in 1598 of 129034 chromosomes (freq: 0.01238), Other in 49 of 7214 chromosomes (freq: 0.006792), Ashkenazi Jewish in 58 of 10368 chromosomes (freq: 0.005594), Latino in 135 of 35426 chromosomes (freq: 0.003811), African in 65 of 24958 chromosomes (freq: 0.002604), European (Finnish) in 61 of 25074 chromosomes (freq: 0.002433) and South Asian in 61 of 30608 chromosomes (freq: 0.001993), but was not observed in the East Asian population. This variant is an in-frame deletion resulting in the removal of a phenylalanine (F) residue at codon 508; the deletion of p.F508 results in a misfolded mutant protein that is prematurely degraded before it reaches the plasma membrane (Maiuri_2015_PMID:26046070). In summary, based on the above information this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as pathogenic. - |
| Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | GeneDx | Jul 30, 2018 | The c.1521_1523delCTT pathogenic variant in the CFTR gene (also known as p.Phe508del or delta F508) is the most common variant identified in the CFTR gene, with up to 90% of individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF) having at least one copy of the c.1521_1523delCTT variant (Cai et al., 2011). The c.1521_1523delCTT variant results in an in-frame deletion of a single Phenylalanine residue at codon 508. Individuals who are homozygous for the c.1521_1523delCTT variant demonstrate the classic features of CF, whereas individuals compound heterozygous for the c.1521_1523delCTT variant and another CFTR variant may have a modified disease phenotype (Ong et al., 2017). Heterozygous carriers of the c.1521_1523delCTT variant are usually asymptomatic, however, may be at increased risk for developing a CFTR-related disorder, as an increased prevalence of single CFTR pathogenic variants has been observed among individuals with chronic pulmonary conditions, CAVD and pancreatitis (Cuppens et al., 2004; Bombieri et al., 2011). We interpret the c.1521_1523delCTT variant as a pathogenic variant. - |

| Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Neuberg Centre For Genomic Medicine, NCGM | Mar 01, 2023 | The inframe deletion c.1521_1523del (p.Phe508del) variant in the CFTR gene has been reported previously in multiple individuals in homozygous/compound heterozygous state affected with Cystic fibrosis related disorders (Sosnay et al., 2013; Terlizzi et al., 2021). The p.Phe508del variant is the most frequent deletion that occurs in ~85% of Cystic fibrosis patients worldwide and is described to affect CFTR (class II) protein processing (Awatade et al. 2019). Experimental studies have shown that this variant affects CFTR function (Zeiher et al. 1995). The p.Phe508del variant is reported with an allele frequency of 0.7% in the gnomAD exomes database and is novel (not in any individuals) in the 1000 Genomes database. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Pathogenic (multiple submissions). This p.Phe508del causes the deletion of the amino acid Phenylalanine at position 508. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. - |

This variant, frequently described as ΔF508, is known to disrupt protein function and is the most common cause of autosomal recessive cystic fibrosis (Riordan et al. 1989. PubMed ID: 2475911; Watson et al. 2004. PubMed ID: 15371902; Sosnay et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23974870). This variant is reported in 1.2% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent. In summary, we classify this variant as pathogenic. - |

Congenital bilateral aplasia of vas deferens from CFTR mutation Pathogenic:1
| Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Lifecell International Pvt. Ltd | - | A Heterozygous inframe indel variant c.1520_1522delTCT in Exon 11 of the CFTR gene that results in the amino acid substitution p.Phe508del was identified. The observed variant has a minor allele frequency of 0.00707/0.00800% in gnomAD exomes and genomes, respectively. The severity of the impact of this variant on the protein is medium, based on the effect of the protein and REVEL score . Rare Exome Variant Ensemble Learner (REVEL) is an ensembl method for predicting the pathogenicity of missense variants based on a combination of scores from 13 individual tools: MutPred, FATHMM v2.3, VEST 3.0, PolyPhen-2, SIFT, PROVEAN, MutationAssessor, MutationTaster, LRT, GERP++, SiPhy, phyloP, and phastCons. The REVEL score for an individual missense variant can range from 0 to 1, with higher scores reflecting greater likelihood that the variant is disease-causing. ClinVar has also classified this variant as Pathogenic. (Variant ID 7105). This variant has been previously reported for Indian patients with congenital absence of the vas deferens by Sharma H et al., 2014. Based on the above evidence this variant has been classified as Pathogenic according to the ACMG guidelines. - |
