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:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpAug 28, 2021This sequence change replaces arginine with serine at codon 170 of the CFTR protein (p.Arg170Ser). The arginine residue is moderately conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between arginine and serine. This variant is present in population databases (rs578029902, ExAC 0.006%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CFTR-related conditions. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsNov 05, 2022The p.R170S variant (also known as c.508C>A), located in coding exon 5 of the CFTR gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 508. The arginine at codon 170 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 02, 2024Variant summary: CFTR c.508C>A (p.Arg170Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the ABC transporter type 1, transmembrane domain of the encoded protein sequence. Two of three in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 250410 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.508C>A in individuals affected with Chronic Pancreatitis Risk and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1053721). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
