Description
The p.G1130A variant (also known as c.3389G>C), located in coding exon 21 of the CFTR gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 3389. The glycine at codon 1130 is replaced by alanine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration has been described in patients with congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD) in conjunction with other pathogenic mutation in CFTR; however, phase of the alterations was not specified (Dayangaç D et al. Hum Reprod, 2004 May;19:1094-100; Ocak Z et al. Turk J Med Sci, 2014;44:347-51). This alteration has also been reported in infertility cohorts (Morea A et al. Mol Hum Reprod, 2005 Aug;11:607-14; Chamayou S et al. BMC Med Genet, 2020 05;21:89), and in conjunction with a with pathogenic mutation in CFTR in an individual with no clinical diagnosis of cystic fibrosis and intermediate sweat chloride levels (Terlizzi V et al. J Cyst Fibros, 2019 07;18:484-490). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on available evidence to date, this variant is unlikely to be causative of classic cystic fibrosis; however, its contribution to the development of a CFTR-related disorder is uncertain. This alteration is thus classified as a variant of unknown significance.
