Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Moderate

The NM_000492.4(CFTR):​c.359C>T​(p.Ala120Val) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000013 in 1,461,326 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. A120T) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

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 Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 4 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 11 uncertain in NM_000492.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr7-117530983-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 53774.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Uncertain_significance=10, not_provided=1, Likely_pathogenic=2, Pathogenic=1}.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.922

Submissions by phenotype

Cystic fibrosis Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Oct 24, 2022	The p.A120V variant (also known as c.359C>T), located in coding exon 4 of the CFTR gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 359. The alanine at codon 120 is replaced by valine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is well 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 submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Sep 08, 2021	This sequence change replaces alanine with valine at codon 120 of the CFTR protein (p.Ala120Val). The alanine residue is moderately conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between alanine and valine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CFTR-related conditions. 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: "Possibly Damaging"; 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. -

CFTR-related disorder Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences	Jan 16, 2024	The CFTR c.359C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ala120Val. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature or in a large population database, indicating this variant is rare. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
