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

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 13 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing variant, NOT destroyed by nmd, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.017780779 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 4.6, offset of 15, new splice context is: taaGTatgt. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP3
No computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, but strongly conserved according to phyloP
PP5
Variant 7-117606745-TTCATCCAGG-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-117606745-TTCATCCAGG-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 439070.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Cystic fibrosis Pathogenic:2
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 02, 2024This variant results in the deletion of part of exon 18 (c.2982_2988+2del) of the CFTR gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in CFTR are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 1695717, 7691345, 9725922). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with cystic fibrosis (PMID: 26708955). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 439070). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJun 07, 2023Variant summary: CFTR c.2982_2988+2delCATCCAGGT is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Three predict the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site. Four predict the variant abolishes a 3' acceptor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant was absent in 251096 control chromosomes. c.2982_2988+2delCATCCAGGT has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Cystic Fibrosis (Schrijver_2016). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 26708955). One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. One laboratory classified the variant as likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
