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]

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.Q39* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.115C>T), located in coding exon 2 of the CFTR gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 115. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 2. This mutation has been seen numerous times in individuals with cystic fibrosis and a second CFTR variant in trans (Cutting GR et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet., 1992 Jun;50:1185-94; Sanz J et al. Eur. J. Hum. Genet., 2010 Feb;18:212-7; Kenková P et al. J. Cyst. Fibros., 2013 Sep;12:532-7). This pathogenic mutation is associated with elevated sweat chloride levels and pancreatic insufficiency (Sosnay PR et al. Nat. Genet., 2013 Oct;45:1160-7). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln39*) in the CFTR gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. 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 premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with cystic fibrosis (PMID: 1376017). This variant is also known as c.247C>T. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 53204). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
