The p.R1162Q variant (also known as c.3485G>A), located in coding exon 22 of the CFTR gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 3485. The arginine at codon 1162 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant was reported in one individual with frequent pneumonia who had normal pancreatic function and sweat chloride levels; this individual did not have a second CFTR alteration (Strandvik B et al. Genet. Test., 2001;5:235-42). R1162 is located at the hinge region of the CFTR protein and may also act as an anchor (LaRusch J et al. PLoS Genet., 2014 Jul;10:e1004376). However, functional studies of a different variant at the same position (p.R1162L) demonstrated normal CFTR protein processing and chloride conductance (Sosnay PR et al. Nat. Genet., 2013 Oct;45:1160-7). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, p.R1162Q 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. -
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1162 of the CFTR protein (p.Arg1162Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs1800120, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of cystic fibrosis and/or cystic fibrosis (PMID: 11788090, 30938940, 32026723). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 555228). 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. 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 c.3485G>A has been identified as a single heterozygous variant in two individuals with features of cystic fibrosis, but not a classic cystic fibrosis phenotype. This CFTR variant (rs1800120) is rare (<0.1%) in a large population dataset (gnomADv2.1.1: 25/282012 total alleles; 0.009%; no homozygotes) and has been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 555228). Of two bioinformatics tools queried, one predicts that the substitution would be damaging, while the second predicts that it would be tolerated. The arginine residue at this position is evolutionarily conserved across all species assessed. We consider the clinical significance of CFTR c.3485G>A to be uncertain at this time. -

The CFTR c.3485G>A; p.Arg1162Gln variant (rs1800120) is reported in the literature in individuals with cystic fibrosis and pancreatitis (Atag 2019, Banjar 2020, Monaghan 2000) and at least one individual with atypical cystic fibrosis (Strandvik 2001). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 555228), and is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.0089% (25/282012 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database (v2.1.1). Computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.812). Additionally, another variant at this codon (c.3485G>T, p.Arg1162Leu) has been reported in individuals with CFTR-related disorders, such as bronchiectasis and chronic pancreatitis, and is considered mildly pathogenic (Casals 2004, Groman 2002, Lazaro 1999, Ziedalski 2006). However, given the limited clinical data and lack of functional data, the significance of this variant is uncertain at this time. References: Atag E et al.

Variant summary: CFTR c.3485G>A (p.Arg1162Gln) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.8e-05 in 250616 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in CFTR causing Cystic Fibrosis (8.8e-05 vs 0.013), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.3485G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Cystic Fibrosis and pancreatitis, without strong evidence for causality (example: Strandvik_2001, Monaghan_2000, Atag_2019, Benjar_2020, Benjar_2020). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Cystic Fibrosis. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30938940, 32026723, 32292813, 10982968, 11788090). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 555228). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
CFTR-related disorder Uncertain:1
The CFTR c.3485G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg1162Gln. This variant has been reported in the compound heterozygous state in an individual with cystic fibrosis (Banjar et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32026723). This variant has also been reported in the heterozygous state in an individual with cystic fibrosis, an individual with frequent pneumonias who had normal pancreatic function and sweat chloride levels, and in an individual with pancreatitis however, the presence of a second CFTR variant was either unknown or not specified in any of these individuals (Monaghan et al. 2000. PubMed ID: 10982968; Strandvik et al. 2001. PubMed ID: 11788090; Atag et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30938940). This variant is reported in 0.020% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
