CFTR2 RCV000757856 SCV001981562 pathogenic Cystic fibrosis 2020-01-10 reviewed by expert panel research
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000757856 SCV000697035 pathogenic Cystic fibrosis 2024-11-25 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: CFTR c.571T>G (p.Phe191Val) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the ABC transporter type 1, transmembrane domain of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 250352 control chromosomes. c.571T>G has been reported in the literature in individuals with features of cystic fibrosis in the presumed compound heterozygous state with other pathogenic variants (e.g. Groman_2002, Krasnov_2008, McCravy_2020, Gonska_2021, Cornet_2023). It has also been reported as a homozygous genotype in an African-American infant diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis by newborn screening (NBS) (Giusti_2008). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. Experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function suggests the variant disrupts expression of the mature protein and ion transport, which can be corrected by drug treatment and results in approximately 4.58% of normal chloride channel conductance relative to wild type (McCravy_2020, Bihler_2024). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 38388235, 36751320, 18500736, 34814176, 12167682, 18951463, 32265312, 31845523, 35527187, 34583889, 26708955). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 495953). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV001002123 SCV001159974 likely pathogenic not specified 2019-02-21 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The CFTR c.571T>G; p.Phe191Val variant (rs141482808) is reported in the literature in individuals affected with cystic fibrosis (CF) or nonclassic CF (Giusti 2008, Groman 2002, Schrijver 2016). This variant has been observed in the homozygous state in a newborn with a positive sweat chloride test (Giusti 2008) and in an individual with nonclassic CF that carried an additional pathogenic CFTR variant (Groman 2002). Similarly, in testing performed at ARUP Laboratories, the p.Phe191Val variant has been observed in an individual with elevated sweat chloride that carried a second pathogenic variant. The p.Phe191Val variant is found on only three chromosomes (3/16210 alleles, 0.02%) in the African population in the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The phenylalanine at codon 191 is moderately conserved, but computational analyses (SIFT: tolerated, PolyPhen-2: damaging) predict conflicting effects of this variant on protein structure/function. However, based on available information, including its incidence in affected individuals, this variant is considered to be likely pathogenic. References: Giusti R et al.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000757856 SCV001209861 uncertain significance Cystic fibrosis 2021-12-12 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 191 of the CFTR protein (p.Phe191Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs141482808, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of cystic fibrosis (PMID: 12167682, 18500736, 26708955). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 495953). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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.

Ambry Genetics RCV000757856 SCV002649637 likely pathogenic Cystic fibrosis 2025-02-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.F191V variant (also known as c.571T>G), located in coding exon 5 of the CFTR gene, results from a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 571. The phenylalanine at codon 191 is replaced by valine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been identified in multiple individuals diagnosed with non-classic cystic fibrosis in conjunction with other pathogenic mutations; however, the phase of these alterations was not provided (Groman JD et al. N. Engl. J. Med., 2002 Aug;347:401-7; McCravy MS et al. Eur Respir J, 2020 Jul;56:). This variant was also identified in the homozygous state in an African American newborn with cystic fibrosis and elevated sweat chloride levels (Giusti R et al. Pediatr. Pulmonol., 2008 Jul;43:638-41). This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with an elevated sweat chloride level in The Clinical and Functional TRanslation of CFTR (CFTR2) database (available at http://cftr2.org. Accessed 02/13/2025). This variant has <10% of wild type quantity and function in The Clinical and Functional TRanslation of CFTR (CFTR2) database (available at http://cftr2.org. Accessed 02/13/2025). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic.

This variant has been reported in individuals with classic and non-classic cystic fibrosis (Groman et al. 2002. PubMed ID: 12167682; Schrijver et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26708955; Gunnett et al. 2023. PubMed ID: 36969284). Additionally, this variant has been reported compound heterozygous with another pathogenic variant in a patient with cystic fibrosis (Cornet et al. 2022. PubMed ID: 36751320). In vitro, and in vivo functional and biochemical studies using human nasal epithelial cells demonstrated diminished protein expression and reduced ion transport which improved with combination therapy treatment (McCravy et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32265312). This variant is reported in 0.019% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic.
