Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PM1PP2PP3PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000492.4(CFTR):c.166G>A(p.Glu56Lys) variant causes a missense, splice region change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000118 in 1,442,320 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 2/3 splice prediction tools predicting alterations to normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic,drug response (★★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. E56D) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

The p.E56K variant (also known as c.166G>A), located in coding exon 3 of the CFTR gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 166. The glutamic acid at codon 56 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration has been observed once in a cohort of men with congenital absense of the vas deferens. The patient also had deltaF508 in trans with this variant and upon further evaluation also presented with elevated sweat chloride levels and recurrent lung infections (Dork T et al. Hum Genet.1997;100(3-4):365-377). Functional studies also determined that the effect of this variant on the CFTR protein was deleterious. Five individuals with cystic fibrosis were reported with this variant, but the second pathogenic mutation and clinical information on these patients was not available (The Clinical and Functional Translation of CFTR (CFTR2); available at http://cftr2.org. Accessed March 25, 2014 and Sosnay PR et al. Nat Genet. 2013;45(10):1160-1167). This amino acid position is completely conserved on sequence alignment. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 56 of the CFTR protein (p.Glu56Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs397508256, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with CFTR-related disorders (PMID: 9272157, 24816901, 26651825). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 53325). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CFTR function (PMID: 23891399, 23924900). This variant disrupts the p.Glu56 amino acid residue in CFTR. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with CFTR-related conditions (PMID: 25910067), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

PharmGKB Level of Evidence 1A: Level 1A clinical annotations describe variant-drug combinations that have variant-specific prescribing guidance available in a current clinical guideline annotation or an FDA-approved drug label annotation. Annotations of drug labels or clinical guidelines must give prescribing guidance for specific variants (e.g. CYP2C9*3, HLA-B*57:01) or provide mapping from defined allele functions to diplotypes and phenotypes to be used as supporting evidence for a level 1A clinical annotation. Level 1A clinical annotations must also be supported by at least one publication in addition to a clinical guideline or drug label with variant-specific prescribing guidance.
