Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Five predict the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site and one predicts the variant abolishes a 3' acceptor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-05 in 275871 control chromosomes (gnomAD and publications). c.579+1G>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Classic Cystic Fibrosis (McKone_2003, Zielenski_1991, Sosnay_2013). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Four diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, and all classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

Sources cited for classification include the following: PMID 23974870. Classification of NM_000492.3(CFTR):c.579+1G>T(aka 711+1G>T) is based on the following criteria: The variant is located at a canonical splice site, is expected to disrupt gene function and is reported in individuals with the relevant phenotype. Please note: this variant was assessed in the context of healthy population screening.‚Äã
Invitae RCV000043566 SCV001578675 pathogenic Cystic fibrosis 2024-01-10 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 5 of the CFTR gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in CFTR are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 1695717, 7691345, 9725922). This variant is present in population databases (rs77188391, gnomAD 0.01%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with cystic fibrosis (CF) (PMID: 1710599, 20880762, 23974870). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is also known as 711+1G>T. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 38494). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Ambry Genetics RCV000043566 SCV002653053 pathogenic Cystic fibrosis 2021-06-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.579+1G>T intronic pathogenic mutation results from a G to T substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 5 of the CFTR gene. Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to result in aberrant splicing. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. This mutation has been described in three siblings who presented with severe pulmonary symptoms, growth retardation, and pancreatic insufficiency and who also carried the c.489+1G>T mutation (De Braekeleer M et al. Clin Genet. 1997;51(3):214-216). In vitro studies of mRNA isolated from the nasal epithelial cells of a pancreatic insufficient CF patient who also carried the c.579+1G>T mutation, suggested that this mutation results in a transcript missing exon 5 (Zielenski J et al. Hum Mol Genet 1993;2(6):683-7). This mutation is typically associated with elevated sweat chloride levels, pancreatic insufficiency, and decreased lung function (Sosnay PR et al. Nat Genet. 2013;45(10):1160-7). Of note, this alteration is also referred to as 711+1G>T in the literature. Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
