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]

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

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. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

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). -

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. -
