Description
The p.W1282R pathogenic mutation (also known as c.3844T>C), located in coding exon 23 of the CFTR gene, results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 3844. The tryptophan at codon 1282 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This mutation was originally reported in an individual with cystic fibrosis; however, the presence of second CFTR variant was unknown (Ivaschenko TE et al. Hum Genet, 1993 Mar;91:63-5). The mutation has also been reported in multiple individuals with cystic fibrosis who had a pathogenic variant on the other chromosome (Ivanov M et al. BMC Med Genomics, 2018 02;11:13; Petrova NV et al. Clin Genet, 2019 03;95:444-447; Petrova NV et al. Genes (Basel), 2020 05;11(5):554; Petrova NV et al. Genes (Basel), 2020 9;11(10):1137). The variant also had minimal CFTR function in FRT cells (Phuan PW et al. Sci Rep, 2019 11;9:17640). Based on internal structural analysis, this variant is anticipated to result in a decrease in structural stability (Liu F et al. Cell, 2017 03;169:85-95.e8). This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
