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]

Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant no significant impact on splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.6e-05 in 250146 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in CFTR causing Chronic Pancreatitis Risk (5.6e-05 vs 0.0063), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1679+9C>G has been reported in the literature. This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Chronic Pancreatitis Risk. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 23343000). Five submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified as VUS (n=3) and likely benign (n=2). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
