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.3761T>G (p.Leu1254X) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent CFTR protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (e.g. c.3773dupT/p.Leu1258fsX7). One in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant. This variant is absent in 121154 control chromosomes. This variant has been reported in multiple CF patients. In addition, CFTR2 classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.L1254* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.3761T>G), located in coding exon 23 of the CFTR gene, results from a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 3761. This changes the amino acid from a leucine to a stop codon within coding exon 23. This mutation has been identified in a cohort of Northern Irish cystic fibrosis families (Hughes DJ et al. Hum. Mutat., 1996;8:340-7). 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. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu1254*) 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: 17331079). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 53805). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
