Gene-level background from the recorded interpretation.

About CFTR

CFTR encodes an ATP-binding cassette family protein that functions as a chloride channel, helping regulate salt and water movement across epithelial tissues. Disruption of CFTR causes cystic fibrosis, an inherited disorder affecting the lungs, digestive system, and other organs; CFTR has no established primary role in cancer.

LYFE Sciences is an AI system, and it can make mistakes. Criteria may be applied incorrectly, sources may be misread, and a confident-looking classification can still be wrong. Double-check every criterion and its underlying evidence before relying on any call.

Met Not met Not assessed Not applicable

Neither PS3 nor BS3 is assessed because the available variant-specific functional evidence is not auditable enough to establish damaging or non-damaging effect strength under generic ACMG/AMP criteria.

PS4 and PP4 cannot be assessed because the required case-control or patient-specific phenotype information is unavailable.

PP5 is met solely from the exact-variant ClinVar expert-panel Pathogenic classification specified for this group.

BP5 lacks a documented alternate molecular basis, and BP6 lacks an exact-variant expert-panel benign classification.

PP3 is met at moderate strength from the applicable missense REVEL path (0.807 >= 0.773).

BP4 is not met because the applicable missense REVEL score (0.807) is above the supporting BP4 cutoff (<= 0.29); SpliceAI and BayesDel do not alter this determination.

Population evidence does not support BA1, BS1, or PM2 because the required filtering frequencies are below the benign/pathogenic thresholds but above the PM2 threshold.

BS2 is not assessed because homozygote counts alone do not document healthy adults or full early-age penetrance, particularly for this low-penetrance CFTR-related allele.

PM3 ModerateACMG_2015Met: one affected CBAVD patient had R117H in trans with a maternally inherited complete CFTR-gene deletion, providing direct phase evidence. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

PM3 is met for this CFTR missense variant. CFTR-related cystic fibrosis and CBAVD are recessive disorders. In a CBAVD patient, the paper reports R117H with IVS8(T)7 in cis and a complete CFTR-gene deletion inherited from the mother; therefore the complete deletion was on the opposite chromosome, in trans to R117H. The patient was affected with CBAVD, and a complete CFTR-gene deletion is a pathogenic loss-of-function allele in this recessive CFTR disorder. This is direct phase and affected-proband evidence for R117H in trans with a pathogenic CFTR allele.

Rule
For recessive disorders, detected in trans with a pathogenic variant ... Note: This requires testing of parents (or offspring) to determine phase.
Evidence considered
  • Ratbi et al. 2007, Table II and Results paragraph: patient #3 was apparently homozygous for R117H with IVS8(T)7 in cis and carried a complete CFTR-gene deletion inherited from his mother.
  • Ratbi et al. 2007, Patients section: the study cohort consisted of 222 patients with isolated congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD), an affected CFTR-related phenotype.
  • The maternally inherited complete CFTR-gene deletion is the allele opposite the R117H/IVS8(T)7 chromosome, establishing R117H/deletion in trans in the affected patient.

PP3 ModerateACMGMet at moderate strength: missense REVEL 0.807 meets the generic PP3 moderate threshold of >=0.773. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The variant is a missense substitution, NP_000483.3:p.(Arg117His), so the governing generic rule selects the REVEL path only; SpliceAI is not used for PP3 in this situation. REVEL is 0.807, meeting the supplied generic ClinGen SVI moderate PP3 threshold of >= 0.773 (Pejaver et al. 2022, PMID:36413997). BayesDel is not used because no generic ACMG-strength calibration is established. The criterion is therefore met at moderate strength without double-counting splice prediction evidence.

Rule
Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect on the gene or gene product (conservation, evolutionary, splicing impact, etc.). ... Missense variant -> REVEL only.
Evidence considered
  • Case evidence identifies NM_000492.4:c.350G>A as the missense variant NP_000483.3:p.(Arg117His).
  • Local REVEL lookup reports a score of 0.807; the supplied generic ClinGen SVI calibration sets moderate PP3 at >= 0.773 (Pejaver et al. 2022, Am J Hum Genet, PMID:36413997).
  • The supplied generic path rule selects REVEL only for a missense variant; SpliceAI max delta 0.051 and BayesDel 0.410121 were not counted for PP3.

PP5 SupportingACMG_2015Met: the exact-variant ClinVar expert-panel record from CFTR2 classifies R117H as Pathogenic, satisfying the specified PP5 evidence path. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The governing rule is: "Reputable source recently reports variant as pathogenic, but the evidence is not available to the laboratory to perform an independent evaluation." The exact-variant ClinVar submission audit matches the queried CFTR variant and records CFTR2 as an expert-panel submitter with classification Pathogenic, reviewed by expert panel, for cystic fibrosis. Under the specified generic PP5 rule, this exact-variant expert-panel pathogenic classification supports PP5; ordinary laboratory submissions and aggregate labels were not used.

Rule
Reputable source recently reports variant as pathogenic, but the evidence is not available to the laboratory to perform an independent evaluation.
Evidence considered
  • ClinVar exact-variant submission audit: SCV000245925, submitter CFTR2, classification Pathogenic, review status reviewed by expert panel, exact_variant_match true, condition Cystic fibrosis.
  • The audit identifies PMID:23974870 as the submission's cited PMID, but PP5 is applied from the exact expert-panel ClinVar classification rather than from an independent interpretation of that paper.

PS1 ACMG_2015Not met: only c.350G>A is documented for p.Arg117His, with no distinct nucleotide change producing the same amino-acid substitution. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The queried variant is CFTR NP_000483.3:p.(Arg117His), caused by NM_000492.4:c.350G>A. The supplied evidence establishes this exact R117H variant, but does not establish a previously pathogenic Arg117His substitution caused by a different nucleotide change. The PS1 definition requires the same amino-acid change as a previously established pathogenic variant regardless of nucleotide change; evidence for the same nucleotide-level variant does not satisfy that distinct-nucleotide requirement.

Rule
Same amino acid change as a previously established pathogenic variant regardless of nucleotide change.
Evidence considered
  • ClinVar evidence identifies the queried variant as NM_000492.4:c.350G>A (NP_000483.3:p.Arg117His) with pathogenic and likely pathogenic submissions, but these concern the same nucleotide-level variant.
  • Massie et al. 2001 (PMID:17329263), Table I, reports R117H in 25 alleles (6.4%) in a CBAVD cohort; it does not report a distinct nucleotide change producing the same p.Arg117His substitution.

The variant is present above 0.0001 in every relevant large population dataset: gnomAD v4.1 all-comers AF=0.00213501 with 3445/1613574 alleles, gnomAD v2.1 non-cancer exomes AF=0.00142114 with 336/236430 alleles, and gnomAD v3.1 non-cancer genomes AF=0.00150085 with 222/147916 alleles. Although the variant is uncommon, these observations are not absent or at the required extremely low frequency.

Rule

BS1 ACMGNot met: gnomAD v4.1 grpmax FAF is 0.00263119, below the generic 0.01 BS1 threshold for an allele frequency greater than expected for disease. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

BS1 is not met. Using the required filtering allele frequency rather than the popmax point estimate, gnomAD v4.1 has grpmax FAF=0.00263119 and gnomAD v2.1 non-cancer exomes have grpmax FAF=0.00232094; both are below the generic 0.01 default. The frequency is not confined to a small isolate and no maximum-credible-frequency calculation is needed to reject this default threshold. The observed frequencies therefore do not establish an allele frequency greater than expected for CFTR-related disease under the supplied generic rule.

Rule
Allele frequency is greater than expected for the disorder. ... BS1 (strong): >= 0.01 — Generic SVI default; per-gene derivation preferred (Whiffin et al. 2017) (PMID:28518168)
Evidence considered
  • gnomAD v4.1 all-comers: grpmax FAF=0.00263119; the population contributing the highest observed AF, European non-Finnish, has 1179756 observed alleles, exceeding the 2000-allele reliability requirement.
  • gnomAD v2.1 non-cancer exomes: exome grpmax FAF=0.00232094; the highest observed non-Finnish European subgroup has 117898 observed alleles.
  • The generic BS1 default supplied for this case is >=0.01; the governing definition is an allele frequency greater than expected for the disorder.
  • Whiffin et al. 2017, PMID:28518168, is the named publication for maximum credible allele-frequency assessment; no per-gene calculation is required because both validated FAF values are already below the generic threshold.

BP2 ACMG_2015Not met: R117H was observed with IVS8(T)5 in cis, but the study states IVS8(T)5 was not considered CF-causing and therefore not pathogenic for BP2. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

BP2 is not met. The relevant cis observation is R117H with IVS8(T)5/(TG)m(T)5 alleles, but the study explicitly categorizes IVS8(T)5 among mild CFTR defects not currently considered CF-causing, so it is not established as a pathogenic variant for BP2. The paper does not provide a qualifying observation of R117H in cis with another pathogenic variant. The alternative BP2 branch concerns a pathogenic variant in trans in a fully penetrant dominant disorder, whereas CFTR-related cystic fibrosis is recessive.

Rule
Observed in trans with a pathogenic variant for a fully penetrant dominant gene/disorder or observed in cis with a pathogenic variant in any inheritance pattern.
Evidence considered
  • Ratbi et al. 2007, Table II: R117H was listed with (TG)13(T)5, (TG)12(T)5, (TG)11(T)5, and M952I as two-variant genotypes; the paper did not establish a pathogenic cis partner for R117H.
  • Ratbi et al. 2007, Results: IVS8(T)5 was categorized among mild CFTR defects currently not considered CF-causing, distinguishing it from pathogenic CFTR mutations.
Sources
BP4 ACMGNot met: missense REVEL 0.807 exceeds the generic BP4 supporting cutoff of <=0.29. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The variant is a missense substitution, so BP4 must be judged on the REVEL path only; the SpliceAI result cannot substitute for a gray-zone REVEL result. REVEL is 0.807, which is above the supplied generic BP4 supporting cutoff of <= 0.29 and therefore does not support no impact. BayesDel is not used because no generic ACMG-strength calibration is established. BP4 is not met.

Rule
Multiple lines of computational evidence suggest no impact on gene or gene product (conservation, evolutionary, splicing impact, etc) ... Missense variant -> REVEL only.
Evidence considered
  • Case evidence identifies NM_000492.4:c.350G>A as the missense variant NP_000483.3:p.(Arg117His).
  • Local REVEL lookup reports a score of 0.807; the supplied generic ClinGen SVI calibration sets supporting BP4 at <= 0.29 (Pejaver et al. 2022, Am J Hum Genet, PMID:36413997).
  • SpliceAI max delta 0.051 was not used because the governing rule selects REVEL only for a missense variant; BayesDel 0.410121 was not used because no generic ACMG-strength calibration is established.

PS2 ACMG_2015Not assessed: the variant was reported in 25 alleles, but confirmed maternity, paternity, de novo status, and absence of family history were not documented. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The available evidence does not document a de novo occurrence of NM_000492.4:c.350G>A (p.Arg117His) in a patient with confirmed disease and no family history. PMID:17329263 reports R117H in a cohort of 222 unrelated men with isolated congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens, including 25 R117H alleles, but it does not provide maternity and paternity confirmation for a qualifying patient or establish the required no-family-history context. ClinVar submission metadata listing maternal origin is not parental testing evidence and does not establish de novo status.

Rule
De novo (both maternity and paternity confirmed) in a patient with the disease and no family history.
Evidence considered
  • Detection of CFTR gene rearrangements enriches the mutation spectrum in congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (PMID:17329263) reports R117H in 25 of 390 identified CFTR alleles (6.4%) among 222 unrelated infertile patients; the report does not document confirmed maternity and paternity, a qualifying de novo event, or the required no-family-history context.
  • ClinVar records include submission metadata with maternal origin, but this is not a documented parent-child segregation study and cannot establish de novo status.
Still missing

PS3 ACMG_2015Not assessed: R117H is linked to reduced conductance only by an unverified lead, without auditable controls, replication, quantitative results, or diagnostic-laboratory validation. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The available variant-specific lead identifies a 1993 CFTR functional study as reporting reduced conductance for R117H, but the supplied evidence is only an unverified classifier summary and does not provide auditable assay controls, replication, quantitative results, or diagnostic-laboratory validation. The extracted full-text evidence for PMID:23974870 describes CFTR functional assays but does not explicitly mention R117H, so its aggregate findings cannot be assigned to this variant. The evidence is therefore insufficient to establish the well-established, reproducible functional evidence required for PS3 or to calibrate a PS3 strength.

Rule
PS3
Evidence considered
  • The literature triage identifies PMID 7680769 as a variant-specific functional-study lead and states that R117H showed reduced single-channel conductance and altered channel properties, but the bundle explicitly labels this as a classifier reading rather than evidence and does not provide auditable assay details.
  • PMID:23974870, Functional analysis results: 43 CFTR variants conducted chloride at less than 10% of wild-type CFTR and 20 missense variants ranged from 10.5% to 147% of wild-type conductance; R117H was not explicitly named, so these results cannot be assigned to this variant.

Reasoning

The governing rule requires a case-control comparison: "The prevalence of the variant in affected individuals is significantly increased compared to the prevalence in controls." The supplied literature includes a CBAVD cohort reporting CFTR R117H in 25 of 390 identified alleles, but no unaffected or population-control count from the same study is reported, so a valid case-control odds ratio and 95% confidence interval cannot be computed. The matched-ancestry gnomAD frequency is available (gnomAD v4.1 European non-Finnish AF 0.00270988), but the affected-case denominator and allele frequency for the relevant disease cohort are not available in the cited evidence, so no case-frequency-versus-gnomAD OR can be calculated. The literature_pass PS4 index entries 27364092 and 30279124 are not present as papers in the packet or source registry, and the packet's ai_classified_papers contains only PMID:7680769 classified for PS3, not PS4; therefore no qualifying PS4 evidence is established.

Rule
The prevalence of the variant in affected individuals is significantly increased compared to the prevalence in controls. ... Note 1: Relative risk (RR) or odds ratio (OR), as obtained from case-control studies, is >5.0 and the confidence interval around the estimate of RR or OR does not include 1.0.
Evidence considered
  • PMID:17329263, Table I: R117H was present in 25 of 390 identified CFTR alleles (6.4%) among 222 unrelated infertile patients with isolated CBAVD; the study reports no unaffected or population-control comparison for this variant.
  • gnomAD v4.1 source data: European non-Finnish allele frequency 0.0027098823824587455 (3197/1179756 alleles); this cannot be converted into a case-control OR without a defined affected-case frequency and compatible case denominator.
  • The PS4 literature screen was checked: the packet's only ai_classified_papers entry is PMID:7680769 and is classified for PS3, while PS4 index PMIDs 27364092 and 30279124 lack corresponding paper records in the packet/source registry.

PM1 ACMG_2015Not assessed: Cancer Hotspots found no significant CFTR R117 hotspot, and no supplied source establishes residue 117 as a critical domain without benign variation. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The queried residue is Arg117 in CFTR. The authoritative vcep_materials.json domain_tables entry is empty because no CFTR VCEP material was retrieved. Cancer Hotspots reports no statistically significant hotspot for CFTR R117, and COSMIC reports the exact variant four times in somatic cancers but the generic rule does not establish that this is a mutational hotspot or critical functional domain. The available paper extract describes CFTR as a chloride channel but does not establish residue 117 as a critical, well-established domain lacking benign variation. Therefore the supplied evidence is insufficient to assess PM1.

Rule
Located in a mutational hot spot and/or critical and well-established functional domain (e.g. active site of an enzyme) without benign variation.
Evidence considered
  • Cancer Hotspots search for CFTR R117 returned no result and stated that the variant does not lie in a statistically significant hotspot.
  • COSMIC reports CFTR c.350G>A (COSV50042918) in somatic cancers four times; this is not, by itself, evidence of a generic ACMG mutational hotspot or critical domain.

Reasoning

The variant is p.Arg117His, but the supplied PM5 comparator file contains zero same-residue candidates and no confirmed pathogenic alternate missense change at Arg117. The literature extract available for this case reports R117H itself, not a different missense substitution at residue 117, and the paper titled with R117C is not available in the local publications directory or paper extracts. Thus a qualifying previously pathogenic alternate missense change cannot be verified from the supplied evidence.

No qualifying cosegregation dataset is available for NM_000492.4:c.350G>A. PMID:17329263 reports R117H in unrelated CBAVD patients and describes several R117H-containing genotypes, but it does not report multiple affected family members with genotype and phenotype results across informative meioses.

PP2 ACMG_2015Not assessed: the supplied evidence does not establish both low benign missense variation and a common CFTR missense disease mechanism at gene level. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The queried variant is missense, and the supplied sources document CFTR missense variants including R117H, but they do not provide a gene-level assessment that CFTR has a low rate of benign missense variation together with missense variants being a common disease mechanism under the generic PP2 definition. Variant-level pathogenic submissions and a single cohort cannot establish both gene-level requirements.

Rule
Missense variant in a gene that has a low rate of benign missense variation and where missense variants are a common mechanism of disease.
Evidence considered

The governing rule is: "Patient’s phenotype or family history is highly specific for a disease with a single genetic etiology." The case evidence does not provide a phenotype or family-history description for the individual being interpreted, and the available R117H literature describes cohorts rather than this patient's phenotype. Therefore specificity of the patient's presentation for cystic fibrosis or another single CFTR-related disease etiology cannot be assessed.

Rule
Patient’s phenotype or family history is highly specific for a disease with a single genetic etiology.
Evidence considered
  • No patient-level phenotype or family-history evidence is present in the supplied case evidence for PP4.
Still missing
  • Patient-level phenotype, diagnostic findings, and relevant family history are needed.
  • The phenotype must be evaluated for specificity to a single genetic etiology rather than general CFTR association.
BA1 ACMGNot assessed: gnomAD v4.1 grpmax FAF is 0.00263119, below the 0.05 BA1 threshold, while ClinVar shows a pathogenic low-penetrance disease association. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

BA1 is not assessed. The relevant filtering frequency is the gnomAD v4.1 grpmax FAF of 0.00263119 (0.263119%), well below the generic stand-alone threshold of 0.05, so frequency alone does not meet BA1. In addition, this CFTR p.Arg117His variant has a strong pathogenic ClinVar consensus, including a low-penetrance designation, and the prompt requires withholding a stand-alone benign call when high frequency and a documented disease association disagree. The gnomAD v2.1 non-cancer exome grpmax FAF is likewise only 0.00232094 and does not change this conclusion.

Rule
Allele frequency is above 5% in Exome Sequencing Project, 1000 Genomes or Exome Aggregation Consortium. ... BA1 (stand-alone): >= 0.05 — ACMG/AMP 2015 stand-alone benign allele frequency (PMID:25741868)
Evidence considered
  • gnomAD v4.1 all-comers: grpmax FAF=0.00263119; European non-Finnish observed AF=0.0027098823824587455 from 3197/1179756 alleles, with 5 homozygotes.
  • gnomAD v2.1 non-cancer exomes: AF=0.00142114 from 336/236430 alleles, homozygotes=1; exome grpmax FAF=0.00232094.
  • The generic BA1 calibration supplied for this case is >=0.05 (ACMG/AMP 2015 stand-alone benign allele frequency, PMID:25741868).
  • ClinVar record for NM_000492.4(CFTR):c.350G>A (p.Arg117His): 36 Pathogenic, 2 Likely pathogenic, 2 pathogenic, and 1 Pathogenic, low penetrance submissions; expert-panel drug-response classification is separate from the disease classification.

BS2 ACMG_2015Not assessed: gnomAD reports 6 v4.1 homozygotes but does not establish healthy adult status, phenotype, age, or full early-age penetrance. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

BS2 is not assessed. gnomAD reports homozygotes (1 in gnomAD v2.1 non-cancer exomes, 1 in gnomAD v2.1 overall, 1 in gnomAD v3.1 non-cancer genomes, and 6 in gnomAD v4.1), but these aggregate population records do not establish that the individuals were healthy adults, nor do they document phenotype, age, or the relevant CFTR genotype context. The rule requires observation in a healthy adult with full penetrance expected at an early age; that requirement is especially unresolved for p.Arg117His, which has a documented low-penetrance and variable CFTR-related disease association.

Rule
Observed in a healthy adult individual for a recessive (homozygous), dominant (heterozygous), or X-linked (hemizygous) disorder, with full penetrance expected at an early age.
Evidence considered
  • gnomAD v4.1 all-comers reports 6 homozygotes; European non-Finnish reports 5 homozygotes.
  • gnomAD v2.1 reports 1 homozygote overall; its non-cancer exome subset also reports 1 homozygote.
  • gnomAD v3.1 non-cancer genomes reports 1 homozygote; v3.1 has no exome cohort.
  • The population databases provide genotype counts but not documented healthy-adult phenotype, age, or complete genotype context for these individuals.
  • ClinVar includes a Pathogenic, low penetrance submission for p.Arg117His, so the full-penetrance early-onset assumption in the generic BS2 rule is not established.
Still missing
  • No documented healthy-adult phenotype and age information for the reported homozygotes; no confirmed full early-age penetrance context.
Sources
BS3 ACMG_2015Not assessed: no auditable variant-specific study demonstrates that R117H has no damaging effect on CFTR function or splicing. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

No variant-specific study in the auditable evidence establishes that CFTR p.(Arg117His) has no damaging effect on protein function or splicing. The available PMID:23974870 functional dataset does not explicitly name R117H, and the separate R117H assay lead lacks verified controls, quantitative results, replication, and validation details. Neutral functional evidence sufficient for BS3 strength calibration is therefore unavailable.

Rule
BS3
Evidence considered
  • PMID:23974870 reports aggregate CFTR functional results but does not explicitly mention R117H, so it cannot support a benign functional conclusion for this variant.
  • The R117H-specific literature lead reports altered channel properties rather than a no-damaging-effect result, and the supplied record does not contain auditable assay-control or reproducibility details.
Still missing
  • Variant-specific benign functional or splicing results for R117H with validated controls and quantitative data.
  • Reproducibility or clinical-laboratory validation supporting a no-damaging-effect conclusion.
Sources
BS4 ACMG_2015Not assessed: no affected relatives with negative testing were reported, so lack of segregation cannot be established. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

No affected family members with documented negative testing for NM_000492.4:c.350G>A are reported. PMID:17329263 describes unrelated CBAVD patients and does not provide a family-based non-segregation analysis. Consequently, lack of segregation in affected relatives cannot be established, and the phenocopy caveat cannot be evaluated.

Rule
Lack of segregation in affected members of a family. ... Caveat: The presence of phenocopies for common phenotypes (i.e. cancer, epilepsy) can mimic lack of segregation among affected individuals.
Evidence considered
  • PMID:17329263 reports unrelated CBAVD patients and R117H allele counts, not affected relatives who test negative for the variant.
  • No family-based non-segregation data are available to evaluate the BS4 phenocopy caveat.
Still missing
  • An informative family with affected relatives must be identified.
  • Affected relatives must have reliable phenotype assessment and variant testing.
  • Potential phenocopies and other pathogenic variants must be considered if non-segregation is observed.

BP1 ACMG_2015Not assessed: no supplied gene-level evidence determines whether CFTR disease is caused primarily by truncating rather than missense variants. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The queried variant is missense. The supplied evidence does not establish that CFTR disease is caused primarily by truncating variants, nor does it provide a gene-level comparison showing that missense variants are an uncommon disease mechanism. The existence of reported CFTR missense disease variants is not sufficient by itself to quantify the word primarily in the BP1 definition.

Rule
Missense variant in a gene for which primarily truncating variants are known to cause disease.
Evidence considered
  • Massie et al. 2001 (PMID:17329263) documents CFTR missense R117H in affected CBAVD subjects, showing that missense disease is represented but not establishing the relative predominance of truncating variants.
  • ClinVar records pathogenic and likely pathogenic CFTR missense submissions for R117H; this does not quantify whether truncating variants primarily cause CFTR disease.
Still missing
  • A gene-level assessment of the relative contribution of truncating and missense pathogenic variants is unavailable.
Sources
BP5 ACMG_2015Not assessed: no case-level alternate molecular diagnosis is documented for an individual carrying CFTR R117H. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The governing rule is: "Variant found in a case with an alternate molecular basis for disease." The available evidence does not document the interpreted patient's case, an alternate molecular diagnosis, or a case in which this exact CFTR variant was present but another molecular basis explained the disease. Cohort observations of R117H and the general ClinVar pathogenic classification do not establish BP5.

Rule
Variant found in a case with an alternate molecular basis for disease.
Evidence considered
  • No case-level alternate molecular basis for disease is documented in the supplied evidence.
Still missing
  • A documented affected case carrying R117H with an independently established alternate molecular basis is needed.
BP6 ACMG_2015Not assessed: no exact-variant ClinVar expert-panel Benign or Likely benign classification is documented for R117H. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The governing rule is: "Reputable source recently reports variant as benign, but the evidence is not available to the laboratory to perform an independent evaluation." The exact-variant ClinVar expert-panel record is Pathogenic, not Benign or Likely benign, and no exact-variant ClinVar expert-panel benign classification is documented. Therefore the specified BP6 trigger is absent.

Rule
Reputable source recently reports variant as benign, but the evidence is not available to the laboratory to perform an independent evaluation.
Evidence considered
  • ClinVar exact-variant submission audit records CFTR2 expert-panel classification Pathogenic, not Benign or Likely benign; no BP6-eligible expert-panel benign assertion is present.
Still missing
  • An exact-variant ClinVar expert-panel Benign or Likely benign classification would be required for the specified BP6 path.

PVS1 N/ANot applicable: PVS1 requires a null variant (nonsense, frameshift, canonical splice, start-loss or stop-loss), and this is a missense variant. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

PVS1 (ClinGen SVI PVS1 recommendations, PMC6185798, pvs1_generic_framework) applies only to null variant classes — nonsense, frameshift, canonical ±1/2 splice-consensus, translation-initiation-codon loss, and stop-loss variants — each expected to trigger nonsense-mediated decay or otherwise abolish normal protein function. NM_000492.4:c.350G>A in CFTR is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_000483.3:p.(Arg117His). As a result, no null-variant mechanism (nonsense-mediated decay, truncation, or canonical splice disruption) is triggered by this variant class, so PVS1's structural prerequisite is not met by this variant class. No VCEP criteria specification covers PVS1 for CFTR, so the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 definition applies. This determination was made deterministically from the variant's consequence class, prior to LLM adjudication.

Reasoning

PM4 (Richards et al. 2015, PMID:25741868) applies to protein length changes: in-frame insertions/deletions in a non-repetitive region, or stop-loss variants that extend the protein past the reference stop codon. NM_000492.4:c.350G>A in CFTR is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_000483.3:p.(Arg117His). As a result, no change in protein length occurs, so there is nothing for this criterion to evaluate, so PM4's structural prerequisite is not met by this variant class. No VCEP criteria specification covers PM4 for CFTR, so the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 definition applies. This determination was made deterministically from the variant's consequence class, prior to LLM adjudication.

NM_000492.4:c.350G>A in CFTR is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_000483.3:p.(Arg117His). As a result, the variant does not alter protein length within a repeat region, so there is nothing for this criterion to evaluate, so BP3's structural prerequisite is not met by this variant class. No VCEP criteria specification covers BP3 for CFTR, so the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 definition applies.

BP7 N/ANot applicable: BP7 requires a synonymous variant, and this is a missense variant. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

BP7 (Richards et al. 2015, PMID:25741868) is defined for a synonymous (silent) variant for which splicing prediction algorithms predict no impact to the splice consensus sequence and the nucleotide is not highly conserved. NM_000492.4:c.350G>A in CFTR is a missense substitution predicted to produce NP_000483.3:p.(Arg117His). As a result, the encoded protein sequence is altered, so the criterion's silent-variant premise does not hold regardless of any splicing prediction, so BP7's structural prerequisite is not met by this variant class. No VCEP criteria specification covers BP7 for CFTR, so the generic ACMG/AMP 2015 definition applies. This determination was made deterministically from the variant's consequence class, prior to LLM adjudication.

How the predictions were used

PP3 ModerateACMGMet at moderate strength: missense REVEL 0.807 meets the generic PP3 moderate threshold of >=0.773. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The variant is a missense substitution, NP_000483.3:p.(Arg117His), so the governing generic rule selects the REVEL path only; SpliceAI is not used for PP3 in this situation. REVEL is 0.807, meeting the supplied generic ClinGen SVI moderate PP3 threshold of >= 0.773 (Pejaver et al. 2022, PMID:36413997). BayesDel is not used because no generic ACMG-strength calibration is established. The criterion is therefore met at moderate strength without double-counting splice prediction evidence.

Rule
Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect on the gene or gene product (conservation, evolutionary, splicing impact, etc.). ... Missense variant -> REVEL only.
Evidence considered
  • Case evidence identifies NM_000492.4:c.350G>A as the missense variant NP_000483.3:p.(Arg117His).
  • Local REVEL lookup reports a score of 0.807; the supplied generic ClinGen SVI calibration sets moderate PP3 at >= 0.773 (Pejaver et al. 2022, Am J Hum Genet, PMID:36413997).
  • The supplied generic path rule selects REVEL only for a missense variant; SpliceAI max delta 0.051 and BayesDel 0.410121 were not counted for PP3.

BP4 ACMGNot met: missense REVEL 0.807 exceeds the generic BP4 supporting cutoff of <=0.29. Details ▾Hide ▴
Reasoning

The variant is a missense substitution, so BP4 must be judged on the REVEL path only; the SpliceAI result cannot substitute for a gray-zone REVEL result. REVEL is 0.807, which is above the supplied generic BP4 supporting cutoff of <= 0.29 and therefore does not support no impact. BayesDel is not used because no generic ACMG-strength calibration is established. BP4 is not met.

Rule
Multiple lines of computational evidence suggest no impact on gene or gene product (conservation, evolutionary, splicing impact, etc) ... Missense variant -> REVEL only.
