Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PM1PM5PP2PP3_StrongPP5
The NM_000492.4(CFTR):c.1516A>C(p.Ile506Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000411 in 1,460,328 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. I506M) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Variant summary: CFTR c.1516A>C (p.Ile506Leu) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the ABC transporter-like, ATP-binding domain (IPR003439) 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 8e-06 in 251282 control chromosomes. c.1516A>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Cystic Fibrosis (e.g. Strandvik_2001, Nunck_2020). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. A different variant affecting the same codon has been classified as pathogenic by our lab (c.1517T>C, P.Ile506Thr), supporting the critical relevance of codon 506 to CFTR protein function. At least one publication reports experimental evidence that this variant results in significantly decreased chloride conductance compared to wildtype in vitro (e.g. Bihler_2024). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 38388235, 31916691, 11788090). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 53275). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
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. This variant disrupts the p.Ile506 amino acid residue in CFTR. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with CFTR-related conditions (PMID: 7509683, 7525963, 11788090), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt CFTR protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 53275). This missense change has been observed in individuals with cystic fibrosis (PMID: 11788090, 16678395). This variant is present in population databases (rs1800091, gnomAD 0.002%). This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 506 of the CFTR protein (p.Ile506Leu). -
The p.I506L variant (also known as c.1516A>C), located in coding exon 11 of the CFTR gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 1516. The isoleucine at codon 506 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been identified in multiple individuals with a clinical diagnosis of cystic fibrosis and a known pathogenic mutation on the the other allele (Strandvik B et al. Genet Test, 2001;5:235-42). This amino acid position is highly 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. -
The CFTR c.1516A>C; p.Ile506Leu variant (rs1800091) has been identified with a pathogenic severe variant on the opposite chromosome in two individuals with cystic fibrosis (Strandvik 2001). Both individuals were diagnosed later in adulthood and presented with high sweat chlorides, severe lung disease, and pancreatic sufficiency. This variant is also reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 53275). It is only found on two alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism (V2.1.1). Computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.886). Additionally, other amino acid substitutions at this codon (Met, Ser, Thr) have been reported in individuals with cystic fibrosis (Castellani 2008, Chevalier-Porst 1994, Deufel 1994). Based on available information, the p.Ile506Leu variant is considered to be likely pathogenic. References: Castellani C et al.
