Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 22 ACMG points: 22P and 0B. PVS1 PS3 PM2 PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000492.4(CFTR):​c.366T>A​(p.Tyr122*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV002619061: Functional in vitro studies found that cells carrying this pathogenic mutation had elevated sweat chloride levels and decreased lung function (Sosnay PR et al. Nat Genet, 2013 Oct" and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

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]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 22 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PS3: PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV002619061: Functional in vitro studies found that cells carrying this pathogenic mutation had elevated sweat chloride levels and decreased lung function (Sosnay PR et al. Nat Genet, 2013 Oct;45:1160-7).
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 7-117530991-T-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-117530991-T-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 38833.Status of the report is reviewed_by_expert_panel, 3 stars.
