Cystic fibrosis Pathogenic:2Uncertain:1Other:1
This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 141 of the CFTR protein (p.Ala141Asp). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with cystic fibrosis (PMID: 9222768, 30548586, 32429104). 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: 53924). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt CFTR protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

This CFTR variant is absent from large population datasets. This variant is present in ClinVar by one submitter, however a classification was not provided. Multiple patients have been reported to carry this variant along with a second disease-causing CFTR variant; in one of these cases the variants were confirmed to be on opposite chromosomes (in trans). Of two bioinformatics tools queried, one predicts that the substitution would be possibly damaging, while the second predicts that it would be tolerated. The alanine residue at this position is highly evolutionarily conserved across most species assessed. We consider this variant likely pathogenic. -
The p.A141D variant (also known as c.422C>A), located in coding exon 4 of the CFTR gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 422. The alanine at codon 141 is replaced by aspartic acid, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This alteration has been identified in multiple individuals diagnosed with cystic fibrosis (Gouya L et al. Hum Mutat, 1997;10:86-7; Kambouris M et al. Eur J Pediatr, 2000 May;159:303-9; Petrova NV et al. Genes (Basel), 2020 May;11:). 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. -
