Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV001347071 SCV001541315 uncertain significance Cystic fibrosis 2020-10-10 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant consists of 13 TG and 6 T nucleotide repeats and is located in intron 9 of the CFTR gene. While this variant is present in population databases (rs397843667), the frequency information is unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the ExAC database. This variant has not been reported in the literature in an individual with a CFTR-related disease. However, it occurs on the opposite chromosome (in trans) from a pathogenic variant in CFTR in an unaffected individual (Invitae database). Considering that biallelic pathogenic variants in CFTR are expected to cause cystic fibrosis or congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD), this evidence indicates this TG[13]T[6] allele is not a primary cause of disease. Different TG variants, TG[11]T6 and TG[12]T[6], have been reported in individuals affected with bronchial asthma and chronic bronchitis, as well as healthy individuals (PMID: 18350634, 23554779). A different TG13 variant, TG[13]T[5] is known to induce skipping of exon 9, and has been observed in individuals affected with CBAVD and cystic fibrosis (PMID: 10556281, 14685937), while the TG[13]T[7] variant has only been reported in controls (PMID: 24551851). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
