Description
Variant summary: CFTR c.1352G>T (p.Gly451Val) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the ABC transporter-like, ATP-binding domain (IPR003439) of the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. The variant was absent in 244264 control chromosomes. c.1352G>T has been observed in heterozygous, presumed compound heterozygous, and complex presumed compound heterozygous (sharing an allele with another rare VUS p.Gly253Arg) states in multiple individuals affected with Cystic Fibrosis and/or CFTR-related conditions (example: McGinness_2005, Petrova_2020, Rueda-Nieto_2022, Ruiz-Cabezas_2019, Shen_2022, Woodall_2021, Woodall_2023). The impact of the complex allele consisting of c.[757G>A;1352G>T] p.[(Gly253Arg;Gly451Val)] may be pathogenic as it has been seen in several individuals affected with cystic fibrosis-spectrum disease with various presumed compound heterozygous pathogenic variants on the second allele (example: Ruiz-Cabezas_2019); however, the impact of p.Gly451Val alone cannot be disambiguated. These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect resulted in approximately 16.37% of normal chloride channel conductance relative to wild type (example: Bihler_2024). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 16189704, 32429104, 30763667, 35698092, 35858753, 34613844, 37701179, 38388235). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 553569). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic.
