The p.W1204* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.3612G>A and 3744G>A), located in coding exon 22 of the CFTR gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 3612. This changes the amino acid from a tryptophan to a stop codon within exon 22. The c.3612G>A mutation was identified in an individual who presented with classic cystic fibrosis (CF) symptoms (Schrijver I et al. J Mol Diagn. 2005;7(2):289-299). The p.W1204* pathogenic mutation was described in a one individual with CF confirmed in trans with p.F508del (Ghanem N, Genomics 1994 May; 21(2):434-6). In a study of California Hispanic and African American individuals with CF and at least one unidentified mutant allele, this mutation was identified on five CF chromosomes (Alper OM, Hum. Mutat. 2004 Oct; 24(4):353). This pathogenic mutation is associated with elevated sweat chloride levels, decreased lung function, pancreatic insufficiency, and Pseudomonas infection (Sosnay PR, Nat. Genet. 2013 Oct; 45(10):1160-7; The Clinical and Functional Translation of CFTR (CFTR2); available at http://cftr2.org. Accessed March 7, 2022). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp1204*) in the CFTR gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CFTR are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 1695717, 7691345, 9725922). This variant is present in population databases (rs121908765, gnomAD 0.006%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with cystic fibrosis (PMID: 7522211, 23974870). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 53779). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: CFTR c.3612G>A (p.Trp1204X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant was observed with an allele frequency of 1.2e-05 in 245006 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in CFTR causing Cystic Fibrosis (1.2e-05 vs 0.013), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. The variant, c.3612G>A, has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Cystic Fibrosis (Sosnay_2014). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Multiple ClinVar submssions from clinical diagnostic laboratories (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant as "pathogenic." Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
