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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJun 14, 2023Variant summary: CFTR c.1572C>A (p.Cys524X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause an absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which is a commonly known mechanism for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 250906 control chromosomes. c.1572C>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Cystic Fibrosis (example, Shuber_1997, Zheng_2017, McCague_2019, Chen_2021, Bresnick_2021). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 34857524, 34315429, 30888834, 9147636, 27717243). Multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories and a database (CFTR2) have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 19, 2019For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Loss-of-function variants in CFTR are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 1695717, 7691345, 9725922). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with cystic fibrosis (PMID: 1284466, 27717243). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 7151). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Cys524*) in the CFTR gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. -
