Description

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp57*) in the CFTR gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in CFTR are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 1695717, 7691345, 9725922). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with cystic fibrosis (PMID: 7683952; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 53355). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Description

Variant summary: CFTR c.170G>A (p.Trp57X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant was absent in 250782 control chromosomes. c.170G>A has been reported in the literature in compound heterozygosity with another pathogenic variant in multiple individuals affected with Cystic Fibrosis (e.g. Bezieau_1993, Roth_2011, Sorio_2011). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports in-vitro experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, indicating that the variant results in impaired protein processing and less than 1% the functional activity of wild-type CFTR (e.g. Sharma_2018). Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories cited the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

Description

The p.W57* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.170G>A and p.W57X), located in coding exon 3 of the CFTR gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 170. This changes the amino acid from a tryptophan to a stop codon within coding exon 3. This pathogenic mutation was first reported in two individuals with cystic fibrosis and pancreatic insufficiency; information about the second mutation in these individuals was not provided (Audrézet MP et al. Hum Mol Genet. 1993;2(1):51-4). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, since premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation (ACMG Recommendations for Standards for Interpretation and Reporting of Sequence Variations. Revision 2007. Genet Med. 2008;10:294).
