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]

Cystic fibrosis Uncertain:2Other:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsFeb 16, 2024The p.A959V variant (also known as c.2876C>T), located in coding exon 17 of the CFTR gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2876. The alanine at codon 959 is replaced by valine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was identified in an individual with congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD) (Ratbi I et al. Hum Reprod, 2007 May;22:1285-91). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJun 07, 2023Variant summary: CFTR c.2876C>T (p.Ala959Val) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the transmembrane domain (IPR011527) of the encoded protein sequence. Five 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 251328 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.2876C>T has been reported in the literature in the heterozygous state in at least one individual affected with Congenital Bilateral Absence Of The Vas Deferens (e.g. Ratbi_2007, Pagin_2020). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Congenital Bilateral Absence Of The Vas Deferens. 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: 32357917, 31845523, 17329263). One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted a clinical-significance assessment for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation and classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
