Variant summary: CFTR c.4C>T (p.Gln2X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause an absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which is a commonly known mechanism for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251152 control chromosomes. c.4C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Cystic Fibrosis (example, Savov_1994, Alonso_2007, Alper_2004, Trujillano_2013, Bresnick_2021). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 17331079, 15365999, 34857524, 7512860, 23687349). Multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories and databases have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 53980). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln2*) 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 present in population databases (rs397508740, gnomAD 0.006%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with CFTR-related conditions (PMID: 7512860). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The p.Q2* mutation (also known as c.4C>T) located in coding exon 1 of the CFTR gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 4. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 1. The first observation of this mutation was with p.R3W in a Bulgarian patient with lung disease, pancreatic insufficiency and at least one positive sweat test (Savov A 1994, Hum. Mol. Genet.; 3(1):57-60). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, since premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation (ACMG Recommendations for Standards for Interpretation and Reporting of Sequence Variations. Revision 2007. Genet Med. 2008;10:294). -
