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]

Variant summary: The CFTR c.3897A>G (p.Thr1299Thr) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide, resulting in a synonymous change. One in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant. 5/5 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. This variant was found in 141/121634 control chromosomes (1 homozygote) at a frequency of 0.0011592, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic CFTR variant (0.0129603), however the homozygous occurrence does suggest a benign role of the variant. In the literature, the variant is reported in both control and patient populations across multiple ethnicities. However, genotypic information of the patients carrying the variant is not clearly specified in publications, and most of them classify it as a 'polymorphism.' One LabCorp specimen carries F508del (DV) and c.1021T>C (DV) (phase of the variants unknown) and the clinical representation of the pt is reported to be CF. In addition, UMD classifies the variant as a polymorphism that is reported in 5 patients (CF or CBAVD), each carrying two other deleterious variants. Although phase of the two deleterious variants is not reported for every patient, UMD cites 2 CF patients that carry p.Lys710X in cis with p.Thr1299Thr. Thus, we have a unequivocal evidence of the presence of deleterious variant(s) in cis with this silent variant in CF patients, suggesting a notion that it is not causally related to these phenotypes and is likely to be a benign polymorphism. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as likely benign. Taken together, this variant is classified as benign. -

Thr1299Thr in exon 24 of CFTR: This variant is not expected to have clinical sig nificance because it does not alter an amino acid residue and is not located wit hin the splice consensus sequence. It has been identified in 0.1% (10/8600) of E uropean American chromosomes from a broad population by the NHLBI Exome Sequenci ng Project (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS; dbSNP rs1800131). -

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. -

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
