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]

Cystic fibrosis Pathogenic:5 Other:1

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	curation	Institute of Human Genetics, University of Leipzig Medical Center	Sep 05, 2022	This variant was identified in 2 unrelated patients with a clinically confirmed diagnosis of cystic fibrosis. The variant was classified in the context of a project re-classifying variants in the German Cystic Fibrosis Registry (Muko.e.V.). Link: https://www.muko.info/angebote/qualitaetsmanagement/register/cf-einrichtungen/mukoweb. Criteria applied: PM2_SUP, PM3_STR, PP3, PP4 -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Feb 08, 2021	For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Nucleotide substitutions within the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with cystic fibrosis (PMID: 31523618, 30450785, 1376017). This variant is also known as 3849G>A. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 53791). This variant is present in population databases (rs144781064, ExAC 0.002%). This sequence change affects codon 1239 of the CFTR mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the CFTR protein. This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 22, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. -
