Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -2 ACMG points: 0P and 2B. BP6BS2_Supporting
The NM_000492.4(CFTR):c.870-7_870-5delTTT variant causes a splice region, intron change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000206 in 1,608,174 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 5 homozygotes. 1/1 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars).

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp | Sep 30, 2024 | Variant summary: CFTR c.870-7_870-5delTTT alters a nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00047 in 248124 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0038 within the South Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 2 homozygotes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in CFTR causing Cystic Fibrosis (0.00047 vs 0.013), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.870-7_870-5delTTT has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Cystic Fibrosis (Shastri_2008, Kharrazi_2015). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 17968991, 22664493, 24440239, 17716958, 26574590). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 439088). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. - |

Benign, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Jun 07, 2023 | This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. - |
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories | Mar 11, 2022 | The CFTR c.870-7_870-5del variant (rs759762840) has been reported in a homozygous state in an individual with predominantly gastrointestinal symptoms associated with CFTR-related disorder, but not classical cystic fibrosis (Shastri 2008). In addition, this variant was found along with a second pathogenic variant in an individual with cystic fibrosis (Kharrazzi 2015). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 439088), and is found in the South Asian population with an allele frequency of 0.38% (117/30664 alleles, 2 homozygotes) in the Genome Aggregation Database. This deletion occurs upstream of the acceptor splice consensus sequence of intron six, and computational analyses (Alamut v.2.11) predict that this variant does not alter splicing. Although the c.870-7_870-5del variant is unlikely to be causative of cystic fibrosis, its clinical significance in CFTR-related disorders cannot be determined with certainty.
