Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 4 ACMG points: 5P and 1B. PM1PP2PP3_ModerateBP6

The NM_000492.4(CFTR):​c.1043T>A​(p.Met348Lys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000123 in 1,613,968 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 Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. M348T) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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]

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

Variant summary: CFTR c.1043T>A (p.Met348Lys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the ABC transporter type 1, transmembrane domain (IPR011527) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00014 in 251178 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in CFTR causing Cystic Fibrosis (0.00014 vs 0.013), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1043T>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) (example: DApice_2004, Liechti-Gallati_1999). However, it has also been found in a healthy homozygous individual (Molinario_2013) and in a patient who presented with respiratory distress, necrotizing enterocolitis and hyperbilirubinemia but a negative sweat test (Hentschel_2012), indicating the variant was not causative for CF. In another family the variant was shown not to co-segregate with the disease (D'Apice_2004). Additionally, the variant has also been found in cis with another pathogenic variant in a CBAVD (Congenital Bilateral Absence of Vas Deferens) and a CF patient with pancreatic insufficiency (Lucarelli_2015). Electrophysiological assessment of CFTR in native rectal epithelium of the patient homozygous for this variant demonstrated normal Cl- secretion (Hentschel_2012) and Gt channel conductance was 61% of normal relative to wildtype (Bihler_2024). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 38388235, 32357917, 15084222, 15614862, 22274833, 16128988, 10439967, 25910067, 23951356, 25922769, 28801929, 30134826, 25087612, 26436105). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 53173). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
