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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpSep 30, 2024Variant 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesMar 11, 2022The 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.
