Comprehensive mutation screening in a cystic fibrosis center.
Pediatrics. 2001 Feb;107(2):280-6., [PMID:11158459]

Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVES AND BACKGROUND: The identities of a cystic fibrosis (CF) patient's CFTR mutations can influence therapeutic strategies, but because >800 CFTR mutations exist, cost-effective, comprehensive screening requires a multistage approach. Single-strand conformation polymorphism and heteroduplex analysis (SSCP/HA) can be an important part of mutation detection, but must be calibrated within each laboratory. The sensitivity of a combined commercial-SSCP/HA approach to genotyping in a large, ethnically diverse US center CF population has not been established. STUDY DESIGN: We screened all 27 CFTR exons in 10 human participants who had an unequivocal CF diagnosis including a positive sweat chloride test and at least 1 unknown allele after commercial testing for the 70 most common mutations by SSCP/HA. These participants were compared with 7 participants who had negative sweat tests but at least 1 other CF-like symptom meriting complete genotyping. RESULTS: For the 10 CF participants, we detected 11 of 16 unknown alleles (69%) and all 4 of the known alleles (100%), for an overall rate of 75% inpatients not fully genotyped by conventional 70 mutation screen. For 7 participants with negative sweat tests, we confirmed 1 identified mutation in 14 alleles and detected 3 additional mutations. Mutations detected in both groups included 7 missense mutations (S13F, P67L, G98R, S492F, G970D, L1093P, N1303K) and 9 deletion, frameshift, nonsense or splicing mutations (R75X, G542X, DeltaF508, 451-458Delta8 bp, 5T, 663DeltaT, exon 13 frameshift, 1261+1G-->A and 3272-26A-->G). Three of these mutations were novel (G970D, L1093P, and 451-458Delta8 bp(1)). Thirteen other changes were detected, including the novel changes 1812-3 ins T, 4096-278 ins T, 4096-265 ins TG, and 4096-180 T-->G. CONCLUSION: When combined with the 70 mutation Genzyme test, SSCP/HA analysis allows for detection of >95% of the mutations in an ethnically heterogeneous CF center population. We discuss 5 possible explanations that could account for the few remaining undetected mutations.

DHPLC screening of cystic fibrosis gene mutations.
Hum Mutat. 2002 Apr;19(4):374-83., [PMID:11933191]

Abstract [show]
Denaturing high performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC) using ion-pairing reverse phase chromatography (IPRPC) columns is a technique for the screening of gene mutations. In order to evaluate the potential utility of this assay method in a clinical laboratory setting, we subjected the PCR products of 73 CF patients known to bear CFTR mutations to this analytic technique. We used thermal denaturation profile parameters specified by the MELT program tool, made available by Stanford University. Using this strategy, we determined an initial analytic sensitivity of 90.4% for any of 73 known CFTR mutations. Most of the mutations not detected by DHPLC under these conditions are alpha-substitutions. This information may eventually help to improve the MELT algorithm. Increasing column denaturation temperatures for one or two degrees above those recommended by the MELT program allowed 100% detection of CFTR mutations tested. By comparing DHPLC methodology used in this study with the recently reported study based on Wavemaker 3.4.4 software (Transgenomic, Omaha, NE) [Le Marechal et al., 2001) and with previous SSCP analysis of CFTR mutations [Ravnik-Glavac et al., 1994] we emphasized differences and similarities in order to refine the DHPLC system and discuss the relationship to the alternative approaches. We conclude that the DHPLC method, under optimized conditions, is highly accurate, rapid, and efficient in detecting mutations in the CFTR gene and may find high utility in screening individuals for CFTR mutations.

Genotype-phenotype correlation in cystic fibrosis: the role of modifier genes.
Am J Med Genet. 2002 Jul 22;111(1):88-95., 2002-07-22 [PMID:12124743]

Abstract [show]
More than 1,000 mutations have been identified in the cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane regulator (CFTR) disease gene. The impact of these mutations on the protein and the wide spectrum of CF phenotypes prompted a series of Genotype-Phenotype correlation studies. The CFTR genotype is invariably correlated with pancreatic status-in about 85% of cases with pancreatic insufficiency and in about 15% of cases with pancreatic sufficiency. The correlations between the CFTR genotype and pulmonary, liver, and gastrointestinal expression are debatable. The heterogeneous phenotype in CF patients bearing the same genotype or homozygotes for nonsense mutations implicated environmental and/or genetic factors in the disease. However, the discordant phenotype observed in CF siblings argued against a major role of environmental factors and suggested that genes other than CFTR modulate the CF phenotype. A locus that modulates gastrointestinal expression was identified in mice and subsequently in humans. By analyzing nine CF patients discordant for meconium ileus we were able to show that this locus had a dominant effect. Moreover, in a collaborative study we found a higher rate of polymorphisms in beta-defensin genes 1 and 2 in CF patients and in controls. In another multicenter study mutations in alpha-1 antitrypsin (A1AT) and mannose binding lectin genes were found to be independent risk factors for liver disease in CF patients. The body of evidence available suggests that the variegated CF phenotype results from complex interactions between numerous gene products.

Spatial and temporal distribution of cystic fibrosis and of its mutations in Brittany, France: a retrospective study from 1960.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common severe inherited disorder that affects children in Caucasian populations. The aim of this study was to define the spatial and temporal distribution of CF and its mutations in Brittany (western France) where the frequency of the disease is high. We retrospectively registered all CF patients born in Brittany since 1960 by cross-checking various data sources (e.g. medical care centres, genetics laboratories, hospital archives). Councils were contacted so that the place of residence of patients at birth could be determined. Moreover, the spectrum of CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutations and their spatial distribution across Brittany were determined. A total of 520 patients was registered in this study. The incidence of CF was assessed according to administrative (department, district) and diocesan divisions of Brittany and its evolution analysed over four decades. The incidence of CF was 1/2630, with a west/east gradient that was confirmed over time (Finistere: 1/2071 vs Ille-et-Vilaine: 1/3286). At present, the incidence of CF is decreasing, mainly as a result of prenatal diagnosis. An excellent mutation detection rate of 99.7% was obtained. Western Brittany presented a specific spectrum of mutations: 1078delT (9.4% of mutated alleles in the diocese of Cornouaille), G551D (7.7% in the diocese of Leon), 4005+1G-->A (2.9% in Cornouaille) and W846X (1.5% in western Brittany). On the other hand, the eastern region showed a spectrum more similar to the overall picture in France as a whole. This study enabled a precise measurement of the incidence of CF in Brittany to be obtained. The high frequency of the CFTR mutated alleles may result from founder effects and genetic drifts. Moreover, the study brings together the regional specificities of the CFTR gene and highlights disparities that exist in this part of France, both in incidence and in mutation distribution. These are attributable to different degrees of isolation and of population movements between the eastern and western parts of the region. Given that this is the first time that such a detailed study of the CFTR gene has been performed on a large population, this heightened knowledge of the epidemiology of CF in Brittany should provide a basis for the improvement of diagnostic strategies and refinement of genetic counselling.

Comparison of the CFTR mutation spectrum in three cohorts of patients of Celtic origin from Brittany (France) and Ireland.
Hum Mutat. 2003 Jul;22(1):105., [PMID:12815607]

Abstract [show]
This study aims to compare the spectrum of the mutations identified in the gene responsible for cystic fibrosis in three cohorts of patients of Celtic origin from Brittany and Ireland. It included 389 patients from Brittany, 631 from Dublin and 139 from Cork. The CFTR gene analysis relied on the detection of the most common mutations, followed by a complete gene scanning using DGGE or D-HPLC. High mutation detection rates were obtained in each cohort: 99.6%, 96.8%, and 96.0% respectively. A high frequency of the c.1652_1655 del3 mutation (F508del: 74.8% to 81.3%) and of the "Celtic" mutation (c.1784G>A (G551D): 3.7% to 9.7%) was observed in each population. Apart from this, the mutation spectrums differed. In Brittany, the most common abnormalities were: c.1078delT (3.6%), c.4041C>G (N1303K: 1.4%), c.2670G>A (W846X(2): 1.0%) and c.1717-1G>A (1.0%), whereas in the cohort of Dublin, the main mutations were: c.482G>A (R117H: 3.0%), c.1811G>C (R560T: 2.4%) and c.621+1G>T (1.7%). Finally, in the Cork area, only the c.482G>A mutation (R117H) reached a frequency of 1%. Two previously-unreported mutations were identified in the Dublin cohort: c.2623-2A>G and c.3446T>G (M1105R). This collaborative study highlights the similarities of the CFTR alleles in the Breton and Irish populations, but also the disparities that exist between these populations, despite their common origin. Each population has its own history, with its mixture of founder effects and genetic drifts, which are at the origin of the current mutation distribution. The molecular study of the CFTR gene provides new tools for retracing European populations' histories.

Identification of novel and rare mutations in California Hispanic and African American cystic fibrosis patients.
Hum Mutat. 2004 Oct;24(4):353., [PMID:15365999]

Abstract [show]
In ethnic heterogeneous California, complete genetic information is currently lacking to build solid population-based cystic fibrosis (CF) screening programs because a large proportion of mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene (CFTR/ABCC7) are still unknown, especially in non-Caucasian patients. A total of 402 [46 African American+356 Hispanic] Hispanic and African American patients from California CF patient registry were included in this study. Patients with at least one unidentified mutant allele were asked to donate blood samples for further analysis, first by Genzyme Genetics for a panel of 87 known mutations, followed by temporal temperature gradient gel electrophoresis (TTGE) scanning of the entire coding exons of CFTR gene. A total of eight novel mutations; one missense mutation, one splice-site mutation and six frame-shift mutations were identified. In addition to the eight novel mutations, 20 [corrected] distinct rare mutations that are not in the current available commercial mutation panels were identified by TTGE. The overall detection rate was raised to 95.7% for African American and 94.5% for Hispanic. The discovery of recurrent rare and novel mutations improves the diagnosis and care of persons with CF and improves our ability to adequately and equitably provide screening and genetic counseling services to non-Caucasians.

Pharmacological induction of CFTR function in patients with cystic fibrosis: mutation-specific therapy.
Pediatr Pulmonol. 2005 Sep;40(3):183-96., [PMID:15880796]

Abstract [show]
CFTR mutations cause defects of CFTR protein production and function by different molecular mechanisms. Mutations can be classified according to the mechanisms by which they disrupt CFTR function. This understanding of the different molecular mechanisms of CFTR dysfunction provides the scientific basis for the development of targeted drugs for mutation-specific therapy of cystic fibrosis (CF). Class I mutations are nonsense mutations that result in the presence of a premature stop codon that leads to the production of unstable mRNA, or the release from the ribosome of a short, truncated protein that is not functional. Aminoglycoside antibiotics can suppress premature termination codons by disrupting translational fidelity and allowing the incorporation of an amino acid, thus permitting translation to continue to the normal termination of the transcript. Class II mutations cause impairment of CFTR processing and folding in the Golgi. As a result, the mutant CFTR is retained in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and eventually targeted for degradation by the quality control mechanisms. Chemical and molecular chaperones such as sodium-4-phenylbutyrate can stabilize protein structure, and allow it to escape from degradation in the ER and be transported to the cell membrane. Class III mutations disrupt the function of the regulatory domain. CFTR is resistant to phosphorylation or adenosine tri-phosphate (ATP) binding. CFTR activators such as alkylxanthines (CPX) and the flavonoid genistein can overcome affected ATP binding through direct binding to a nucleotide binding fold. In patients carrying class IV mutations, phosphorylation of CFTR results in reduced chloride transport. Increases in the overall cell surface content of these mutants might overcome the relative reduction in conductance. Alternatively, restoring native chloride pore characteristics pharmacologically might be effective. Activators of CFTR at the plasma membrane may function by promoting CFTR phosphorylation, by blocking CFTR dephosphorylation, by interacting directly with CFTR, and/or by modulation of CFTR protein-protein interactions. Class V mutations affect the splicing machinery and generate both aberrantly and correctly spliced transcripts, the levels of which vary among different patients and among different organs of the same patient. Splicing factors that promote exon inclusion or factors that promote exon skipping can promote increases of correctly spliced transcripts, depending on the molecular defect. Inconsistent results were reported regarding the required level of corrected or mutated CFTR that had to be reached in order to achieve normal function.

Extensive sequencing of the CFTR gene: lessons learned from the first 157 patient samples.
Hum Genet. 2005 Dec;118(3-4):331-8. Epub 2005 Sep 28., [PMID:16189704]

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is one of the most common monogenic diseases affecting Caucasians and has an incidence of approximately 1:3,300 births. Currently recommended screening panels for mutations in the responsible gene (CF transmembrane regulator gene, CFTR) do not detect all disease-associated mutations. Our laboratory offers extensive sequencing of the CFTR (ABCC7) gene (including the promoter, all exons and splice junction sites, and regions of selected introns) as a clinical test to detect mutations which are not found with conventional screening. The objective of this report is to summarize the findings of extensive CFTR sequencing from our first 157 consecutive patient samples. In most patients with classic CF symptoms (18/24, 75%), extensive CFTR sequencing confirmed the diagnosis by finding two disease-associated mutations. In contrast, only 5 of 75 (7%) patients with atypical CF had been identified with two CFTR mutations. A diagnosis of CF was confirmed in 10 of 17 (58%) newborns with either positive sweat chloride readings or positive immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT) screen results. We ascertained ten novel sequence variants that are potentially disease-associated: two deletions (c.1641AG>T, c.2949_2853delTACTC), seven missense mutations (p.S158T, p.G451V, p.K481E, p.C491S, p.H949L, p.T1036N, p.F1099L), and one complex allele ([p.356_A357del; p.358I]). We ascertained three other apparently novel complex alleles. Finally, several patients were found to carry partial CFTR gene deletions. In summary, extensive CFTR gene sequencing can detect rare mutations which are not found with other screening and diagnostic tests, and can thus establish a definitive diagnosis in symptomatic patients with previously negative results. This enables carrier detection and prenatal diagnosis in additional family members.

Comprehensive genetic analysis of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator from dried blood specimens--implications for newborn screening.
Genet Med. 2006 Sep;8(9):557-62., [PMID:16980811]

Abstract [show]
PURPOSE: In the United States, approximately 1/3,700 babies is born with cystic fibrosis each year. The >1,300 documented sequence variants pose a challenge for detection of cystic fibrosis through genetic screening. To investigate whether comprehensive characterization of the cystic fibrosis gene is feasible using dried newborn blood specimens, we modified the whole blood Ambry Test: CF and determined its sensitivity by testing DNA from individuals with cystic fibrosis who still had unknown mutations after commercial mutation panel testing. METHODS: DNA from 42 archived newborn dried blood specimens of affected Hispanic, African-American and Caucasian individuals in California was analyzed by temporal temperature gradient electrophoresis screening and targeted sequencing, and by gross deletion analysis. RESULTS: Excluding two specimens that could not be analyzed due to poor DNA quality, we report a 100% sensitivity and clinical detection rate in the remaining 40 patients. Eighty-three mutations representing 40 different variants were detected, including 8 novel mutations. CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates the feasibility of temporal temperature gradient electrophoresis-based full sequence analysis and targeted sequencing from DNA in newborn blood specimens. The Ambry Test: CF, as an additional step in cystic fibrosis newborn screening models, can be used to dramatically reduce the number of cystic fibrosis carrier sweat test referrals.

CFTR mutations in Turkish and North African cystic fibrosis patients in Europe: implications for screening.
Genet Test. 2008 Mar;12(1):25-35., [PMID:18373402]

Abstract [show]
AIMS: To obtain more insight into the variability of the CFTR mutations found in immigrant cystic fibrosis (CF) patients who are living in Europe now, and to estimate the test sensitivity of different frequently used methods of DNA analysis to detect CF carriers or patients among these Turkish or North African immigrants. METHODS: A survey among 373 European CF centers asking which CFTR mutations had been found in Turkish and North African CF patients. RESULTS: 31 and 26 different mutations were reported in Turkish and North African patients, identifying 64.2% (113/176) and 87.4% (118/135) alleles, respectively (p < 0.001). The mean sensitivity (detection rate) of three most common CFTR mutation panels to detect these mutations differed between Turkish and North African people, 44.9% (79/176) versus 69.6% (94/135) (p < 0.001), and can be increased to 57.4% (101/176) and 79.3% (107/135) (p < 0.001), respectively, by expanding these panels with 13 mutations which have been found on two or more alleles. CONCLUSION: 35.8% and 12.6%, respectively, of CF alleles in Turkish and North African patients living in Europe now had not been identified. Among these populations, the test sensitivity of common CFTR mutation panels is insufficient for use in screening programs in Europe, even after expansion with frequent Turkish and North African mutations. This raises questions about whether and how to implement CF carrier and neonatal screening in a multiethnic society.

CFTR transcription defects in pancreatic sufficient cystic fibrosis patients with only one mutation in the coding region of CFTR.
J Med Genet. 2011 Apr;48(4):235-41. Epub 2010 Nov 20., [PMID:21097845]

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) manifest a multisystem disease due to deleterious mutations in each gene encoding the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). However, the role of dysfunctional CFTR is uncertain in individuals with mild forms of CF (ie, pancreatic sufficiency) and mutation in only one CFTR gene. METHODS: Eleven pancreatic sufficient (PS) CF patients with only one CFTR mutation identified after mutation screening (three patients), mutation scanning (four patients) or DNA sequencing (four patients) were studied. Bi-directional sequencing of the coding region of CFTR was performed in patients who had mutation screening or scanning. If a second CFTR mutation was not identified, CFTR mRNA transcripts from nasal epithelial cells were analysed to determine if any PS-CF patients harboured a second CFTR mutation that altered RNA expression. RESULTS: Sequencing of the coding regions of CFTR identified a second deleterious mutation in five of the seven patients who previously had mutation screening or mutation scanning. Five of the remaining six patients with only one deleterious mutation identified in the coding region of one CFTR gene had a pathologic reduction in the amount of RNA transcribed from their other CFTR gene (8.4-16% of wild type). CONCLUSIONS: These results show that sequencing of the coding region of CFTR followed by analysis of CFTR transcription could be a useful diagnostic approach to confirm that patients with mild forms of CF harbour deleterious alterations in both CFTR genes.

Detection of CFTR mutations using temporal temperature gradient gel electrophoresis.
Electrophoresis. 2004 Aug;25(15):2593-601., [PMID:15300780]

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF), caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene, is one of the most common autosomal recessive diseases with variable incidences and mutation spectra among different ethnic groups. Current commercially available mutation panels designed for the analysis of known recurrent mutations have a detection rate between 38 to 95%, depending upon the ethnic background of the patient. We describe the application of a novel mutation detection method, temporal temperature gradient gel electrophoresis (TTGE), to the study of the molecular genetics of Hispanic CF patients. TTGE effectively identified numerous rare and novel mutations and polymorphisms. One interesting observation is that the majority of the novel mutations are splice site, frame shift, or nonsense mutations that cause severe clinical phenotypes. Our data demonstrate that screening of the 27 exons and intron/exon junctions of the CFTR gene by TTGE greatly improves the molecular diagnosis of Hispanic CF patients.

Validation of high-resolution DNA melting analysis for mutation scanning of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene.
J Mol Diagn. 2008 Sep;10(5):424-34. Epub 2008 Aug 7., [PMID:18687795]

Abstract [show]
High-resolution melting analysis of polymerase chain reaction products for mutation scanning, which began in the early 2000s, is based on monitoring of the fluorescence released during the melting of double-stranded DNA labeled with specifically developed saturation dye, such as LC-Green. We report here the validation of this method to scan 98% of the coding sequence of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. We designed 32 pairs of primers to amplify and analyze the 27 exons of the gene. Thanks to the addition of a small GC-clamp at the 5' ends of the primers, one single melting domain and one identical annealing temperature were obtained to co-amplify all of the fragments. A total of 307 DNA samples, extracted by the salt precipitation method, carrying 221 mutations and 21 polymorphisms, plus 20 control samples free from variations (confirmed by denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography analysis), was used. With the conditions described in this study, 100% of samples that carry heterozygous mutations and 60% of those with homozygous mutations were identified. The study of a cohort of 136 idiopathic chronic pancreatitis patients enabled us to prospectively evaluate this technique. Thus, high-resolution melting analysis is a robust and sensitive single-tube technique for screening mutations in a gene and promises to become the gold standard over denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography, particularly for highly mutated genes such as CFTR, and appears suitable for use in reference diagnostic laboratories.

Diagnostic testing by CFTR gene mutation analysis in a large group of Hispanics: novel mutations and assessment of a population-specific mutation spectrum.
J Mol Diagn. 2005 May;7(2):289-99., [PMID:15858154]

Abstract [show]
Characterization of CFTR mutations in the U.S. Hispanic population is vital to early diagnosis, genetic counseling, patient-specific treatment, and the understanding of cystic fibrosis (CF) pathogenesis. The mutation spectrum in Hispanics, however, remains poorly defined. A group of 257 self-identified Hispanics with clinical manifestations consistent with CF were studied by temporal temperature gradient electrophoresis and/or DNA sequencing. A total of 183 mutations were identified, including 14 different amino acid-changing novel variants. A significant proportion (78/85) of the different mutations identified would not have been detected by the ACMG/ACOG-recommended 25-mutation screening panel. Over one third of the mutations (27/85) occurred with a relative frequency >1%, which illustrates that the identified mutations are not all rare. This is supported by a comparison with other large CFTR studies. These results underscore the disparity in mutation identification between Caucasians and Hispanics and show utility for comprehensive diagnostic CFTR mutation analysis in this population.

Spectrum of CFTR mutations in cystic fibrosis and in congenital absence of the vas deferens in France.
Hum Mutat. 2000;16(2):143-56., [PMID:10923036]

Abstract [show]
We have collated the results of cystic fibrosis (CF) mutation analysis conducted in 19 laboratories in France. We have analyzed 7, 420 CF alleles, demonstrating a total of 310 different mutations including 24 not reported previously, accounting for 93.56% of CF genes. The most common were F508del (67.18%; range 61-80), G542X (2.86%; range 1-6.7%), N1303K (2.10%; range 0.75-4.6%), and 1717-1G>A (1.31%; range 0-2.8%). Only 11 mutations had relative frequencies >0. 4%, 140 mutations were found on a small number of CF alleles (from 29 to two), and 154 were unique. These data show a clear geographical and/or ethnic variation in the distribution of the most common CF mutations. This spectrum of CF mutations, the largest ever reported in one country, has generated 481 different genotypes. We also investigated a cohort of 800 French men with congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens (CBAVD) and identified a total of 137 different CFTR mutations. Screening for the most common CF defects in addition to assessment for IVS8-5T allowed us to detect two mutations in 47.63% and one in 24.63% of CBAVD patients. In a subset of 327 CBAVD men who were more extensively investigated through the scanning of coding/flanking sequences, 516 of 654 (78. 90%) alleles were identified, with 15.90% and 70.95% of patients carrying one or two mutations, respectively, and only 13.15% without any detectable CFTR abnormality. The distribution of genotypes, classified according to the expected effect of their mutations on CFTR protein, clearly differed between both populations. CF patients had two severe mutations (87.77%) or one severe and one mild/variable mutation (11.33%), whereas CBAVD men had either a severe and a mild/variable (87.89%) or two mild/variable (11.57%) mutations.

To gain structural insight, the known structures of several other nucleotides binding proteins can be used as a framework for modeling these domains. We have modeled both nucleotide binding domains of the protein CFTR (Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator) using the two similar domains of mitochondrial F1-ATPase. The models obtained, provide useful insights into the putative functions of these domains and their possible interaction as well as a rationale for the basis of Cystic Fibrosis causing mutations. First, the two nucleotide binding domains (folds) of CFTR are each predicted to span a 240-250 amino acid sequence rather than the 150-160 amino acid sequence originally proposed. Second, the first nucleotide binding fold, is predicted to catalyze significant rates of ATP hydrolysis as a catalytic base (E504) resides near the y phosphate of ATP. This prediction has been verified experimentally [Ko, Y.H., and Pedersen, P.L. (1995) J. Biol. Chem. 268, 24330-24338], providing support for the model. In contrast, the second nucleotide binding fold is predicted at best to be a weak ATPase as the glutamic acid residue is replaced with a glutamine. Third, F508, which when deleted causes approximately 70% of all cases of cystic fibrosis, is predicted to lie in a cleft near the nucleotide binding pocket. All other disease causing mutations within the two nucleotide binding domains of CFTR either reside near the Walker A and Walker B consensus motifs in the heart of the nucleotide binding pocket, or in the C motif which lies outside but near the nucleotide binding pocket. Finally, the two nucleotide binding domains of CFTR are predicted to interact, and in one of the two predicted orientations, F508 resides near the interface. This is the first report where both nucleotide binding domains of an ABC transporter and their putative domain-domain interactions have been modeled in three dimensions. The methods and the template used in this work can be used to analyze the structures and function of the nucleotide binding domains of all other members of the ABC transporter super-family.

360 The CFTR NBD1 model that results (Fig. 6) gathers the disease causing mutations in three different clusters: (1) mutations affecting the nucleotide binding pocket and the putative general base: A455E, G458V, E504Q AI507 AF508 P574H; (2) mutations in motif C which are probably related to an interaction with region D: S549[R,N,I] G551[S,D], R553Q; and (3) mutations within or near motif B, L558S, A559T, R560T, Y563N and mutations S492F and G480C.

Haplotype analysis of 94 cystic fibrosis mutations with seven polymorphic CFTR DNA markers.
Hum Mutat. 1996;8(2):149-59., [PMID:8844213]

Abstract [show]
We have analyzed 416 normal and 467 chromosomes carrying 94 different cystic fibrosis (CF) mutations with polymorphic genetic markers J44, IVS6aGATT, IVS8CA, T854, IVS17BTA, IVS17BCA, and TUB20. The number of mutations found with each haplotype is proportional to its frequency among normal chromosomes, suggesting that there is no preferential haplotype in which mutations arise and thus excluding possible selection for specific haplotypes. While many common mutations in the worldwide CF population showed absence of haplotype variation, indicating their recent origins, some mutations were associated with more than one haplotype. The most common CF mutations, delta F508, G542X, and N1303K, showed the highest number of slippage events at microsatellites, suggesting that they are the most ancient CF mutations. Recurrence was probably the case for 9 CF mutations (R117H, H199Y, R347YH, R347P, L558S, 2184insA, 3272-26A-->G, R1162X, and 3849 + 10kbC-->T). This analysis of 94 CF mutations should facilitate mutation screening and provides useful data for studies on population genetics of CF.

Mutation analysis in 600 French cystic fibrosis patients.
J Med Genet. 1994 Jul;31(7):541-4., [PMID:7525963]

Abstract [show]
The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene of 600 unrelated cystic fibrosis (CF) patients living in France (excluding Brittany) was screened for 105 different mutations. This analysis resulted in the identification of 86% of the CF alleles and complete genotyping of 76% of the patients. The most frequent mutations in this population after delta F508 (69% of the CF chromosomes) are G542X (3.3%), N1303K (1.8%), W1282X (1.5%), 1717-1G-->A (1.3%), 2184delA + 2183 A-->G (0.9%), and R553X (0.8%).

Sensitivity of single-strand conformation polymorphism and heteroduplex method for mutation detection in the cystic fibrosis gene.
Hum Mol Genet. 1994 May;3(5):801-7., [PMID:7521710]

Abstract [show]
The gene responsible for cystic fibrosis (CF) contains 27 coding exons and more than 300 independent mutations have been identified. An efficient and optimized strategy is required to identify additional mutations and/or to screen patient samples for the presence of known mutations. We have tested several different conditions for performing single-stranded conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis in order to determine the efficiency of the method and to identify the optimum conditions for mutation detection. Each exon and corresponding exon boundaries were amplified. A panel of 134 known CF mutations were used to test the efficiency of detection of mutations. The SSCP conditions were varied by altering the percentage and cross-linking of the acrylamide, employing MDE (an acrylamide substitute), and by adding sucrose and glycerol. The presence of heteroduplexes could be detected on most gels and in some cases contributed to the ability to distinguish certain mutations. Each analysis condition detected 75-98% of the mutations, and all of the mutations could be detected by at least one condition. Therefore, an optimized SSCP analysis can be used to efficiently screen for mutations in a large gene.

Abstract [show]
California uses a unique method to screen newborns for cystic fibrosis (CF) that includes gene scanning and DNA sequencing after only one California-40 cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) panel mutation has been identified in hypertrypsinogenemic specimens. Newborns found by sequencing to have one or more additional mutations or variants (including novel variants) in the CFTR gene are systematically followed, allowing for prospective assessment of the pathogenic potential of these variants. During the first 3 years of screening, 55 novel variants were identified. Six of these novel variants were discovered in five screen-negative participants and three were identified in multiple unrelated participants. Ten novel variants (c.2554_2555insT, p.F1107L, c.-152G>C, p.L323P, p.L32M, c.2883_2886dupGTCA, c.2349_2350insT, p.K114del, c.-602A>T, and c.2822delT) were associated with a CF phenotype (42% of participants were diagnosed at 4 to 25 months of age), whereas 26 were associated with CFTR-related metabolic syndrome to date. Associations with the remaining novel variants were confounded by the presence of other diseases or other mutations in cis or by inadequate follow-up. These findings have implications for how CF newborn screening and follow-up is conducted and will help guide which genotypes should, and which should not, be considered screen positive for CF in California and elsewhere.

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: Ivacaftor (KALYDECO, VX-770) is a CFTR potentiator that increased CFTR channel activity and improved lung function in patients age 6 years and older with CF who have the G551D-CFTR gating mutation. The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of ivacaftor on mutant CFTR protein forms with defects in protein processing and/or channel function. METHODS: The effect of ivacaftor on CFTR function was tested in electrophysiological studies using a panel of Fischer rat thyroid (FRT) cells expressing 54 missense CFTR mutations that cause defects in the amount or function of CFTR at the cell surface. RESULTS: Ivacaftor potentiated multiple mutant CFTR protein forms that produce functional CFTR at the cell surface. These included mutant CFTR forms with mild defects in CFTR processing or mild defects in CFTR channel conductance. CONCLUSIONS: These in vitro data indicated that ivacaftor is a broad acting CFTR potentiator and could be used to help stratify patients with CF who have different CFTR genotypes for studies investigating the potential clinical benefit of ivacaftor.

Allosteric coupling between the intracellular coupling helix 4 and regulatory sites of the first nucleotide-binding domain of CFTR.
PLoS One. 2013 Sep 18;8(9):e74347. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0074347. eCollection 2013., [PMID:24058550]

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis is caused by mutations in CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator), leading to folding and processing defects and to chloride channel gating misfunction. CFTR is regulated by ATP binding to its cytoplasmic nucleotide-binding domains, NBD1 and NBD2, and by phosphorylation of the NBD1 regulatory insert (RI) and the regulatory extension (RE)/R region. These regulatory effects are transmitted to the rest of the channel via NBD interactions with intracellular domain coupling helices (CL), particularly CL4. Using a sensitive method for detecting inter-residue correlations between chemical shift changes in NMR spectra, an allosteric network was revealed within NBD1, with a construct lacking RI. The CL4-binding site couples to the RI-deletion site and the C-terminal residues of NBD1 that precede the R region in full-length CFTR. Titration of CL4 peptide into NBD1 perturbs the conformational ensemble in these sites with similar titration patterns observed in F508del, the major CF-causing mutant, and in suppressor mutants F494N, V510D and Q637R NBD1, as well as in a CL4-NBD1 fusion construct. Reciprocally, the C-terminal mutation, Q637R, perturbs dynamics in these three sites. This allosteric network suggests a mechanism synthesizing diverse regulatory NBD1 interactions and provides biophysical evidence for the allosteric coupling required for CFTR function.

Mechanisms of CFTR functional variants that impair regulated bicarbonate permeation and increase risk for pancreatitis but not for cystic fibrosis.

Abstract [show]
CFTR is a dynamically regulated anion channel. Intracellular WNK1-SPAK activation causes CFTR to change permeability and conductance characteristics from a chloride-preferring to bicarbonate-preferring channel through unknown mechanisms. Two severe CFTR mutations (CFTRsev) cause complete loss of CFTR function and result in cystic fibrosis (CF), a severe genetic disorder affecting sweat glands, nasal sinuses, lungs, pancreas, liver, intestines, and male reproductive system. We hypothesize that those CFTR mutations that disrupt the WNK1-SPAK activation mechanisms cause a selective, bicarbonate defect in channel function (CFTRBD) affecting organs that utilize CFTR for bicarbonate secretion (e.g. the pancreas, nasal sinus, vas deferens) but do not cause typical CF. To understand the structural and functional requirements of the CFTR bicarbonate-preferring channel, we (a) screened 984 well-phenotyped pancreatitis cases for candidate CFTRBD mutations from among 81 previously described CFTR variants; (b) conducted electrophysiology studies on clones of variants found in pancreatitis but not CF; (c) computationally constructed a new, complete structural model of CFTR for molecular dynamics simulation of wild-type and mutant variants; and (d) tested the newly defined CFTRBD variants for disease in non-pancreas organs utilizing CFTR for bicarbonate secretion. Nine variants (CFTR R74Q, R75Q, R117H, R170H, L967S, L997F, D1152H, S1235R, and D1270N) not associated with typical CF were associated with pancreatitis (OR 1.5, p = 0.002). Clones expressed in HEK 293T cells had normal chloride but not bicarbonate permeability and conductance with WNK1-SPAK activation. Molecular dynamics simulations suggest physical restriction of the CFTR channel and altered dynamic channel regulation. Comparing pancreatitis patients and controls, CFTRBD increased risk for rhinosinusitis (OR 2.3, p<0.005) and male infertility (OR 395, p<<0.0001). WNK1-SPAK pathway-activated increases in CFTR bicarbonate permeability are altered by CFTRBD variants through multiple mechanisms. CFTRBD variants are associated with clinically significant disorders of the pancreas, sinuses, and male reproductive system.

Abstract [show]
In absence of experimental 3D structures, several homology models, based on ABC exporter 3D structures, have provided significant insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying the function of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein, a chloride channel whose defects are associated with cystic fibrosis (CF). Until now, these models, however, did not furnished much insights into the continuous way that ions could follow from the cytosol to the extracellular milieu in the open form of the channel. Here, we have built a refined model of CFTR, based on the outward-facing Sav1866 experimental 3D structure and integrating the evolutionary and structural information available today. Molecular dynamics simulations revealed significant conformational changes, resulting in a full-open channel, accessible from the cytosol through lateral tunnels displayed in the long intracellular loops (ICLs). At the same time, the region of nucleotide-binding domain 1 in contact with one of the ICLs and carrying amino acid F508, the deletion of which is the most common CF-causing mutation, was found to adopt an alternative but stable position. Then, in a second step, this first stable full-open conformation evolved toward another stable state, in which only a limited displacement of the upper part of the transmembrane helices leads to a closure of the channel, in a conformation very close to that adopted by the Atm1 ABC exporter, in an inward-facing conformation. These models, supported by experimental data, provide significant new insights into the CFTR structure-function relationships and into the possible impact of CF-causing mutations.

Abstract [show]
Purpose:Many regions have implemented newborn screening (NBS) for cystic fibrosis (CF) using a limited panel of cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) mutations after immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT) analysis. We sought to assess the feasibility of further improving the screening using next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology.Methods:An NGS assay was used to detect 162 CFTR mutations/variants characterized by the CFTR2 project. We used 67 dried blood spots (DBSs) containing 48 distinct CFTR mutations to validate the assay. NGS assay was retrospectively performed on 165 CF screen-positive samples with one CFTR mutation.Results:The NGS assay was successfully performed using DNA isolated from DBSs, and it correctly detected all CFTR mutations in the validation. Among 165 screen-positive infants with one CFTR mutation, no additional disease-causing mutation was identified in 151 samples consistent with normal sweat tests. Five infants had a CF-causing mutation that was not included in this panel, and nine with two CF-causing mutations were identified.Conclusion:The NGS assay was 100% concordant with traditional methods. Retrospective analysis results indicate an IRT/NGS screening algorithm would enable high sensitivity, better specificity and positive predictive value (PPV). This study lays the foundation for prospective studies and for introducing NGS in NBS laboratories.Genet Med advance online publication 12 February 2015Genetics in Medicine (2015); doi:10.1038/gim.2014.209.

Abstract [show]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is one of the most common indications for preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) for single gene disorders, giving couples the opportunity to conceive unaffected children without having to consider termination of pregnancy. However, there are no available standardized protocols, so that each center has to develop its own diagnostic strategies and procedures. Furthermore, reproductive decisions are complicated by the diversity of disease-causing variants in the CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) gene and the complexity of correlations between genotypes and associated phenotypes, so that attitudes and practices toward the risks for future offspring can vary greatly between countries. On behalf of the EuroGentest Network, eighteen experts in PGD and/or molecular diagnosis of CF from seven countries attended a workshop held in Montpellier, France, on 14 December 2011. Building on the best practice guidelines for amplification-based PGD established by ESHRE (European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology), the goal of this meeting was to formulate specific guidelines for CF-PGD in order to contribute to a better harmonization of practices across Europe. Different topics were covered including variant nomenclature, inclusion criteria, genetic counseling, PGD strategy and reporting of results. The recommendations are summarized here, and updated information on the clinical significance of CFTR variants and associated phenotypes is presented.European Journal of Human Genetics advance online publication, 27 May 2015; doi:10.1038/ejhg.2015.99.

Abstract [show]
OBJECTIVES: This article describes the methods used and the program performance results for the first 5 years of newborn screening for cystic fibrosis (CF) in California. METHODS: From July 16, 2007, to June 30, 2012, a total of 2 573 293 newborns were screened for CF by using a 3-step model: (1) measuring immunoreactive trypsinogen in all dried blood spot specimens; (2) testing 28 to 40 selected cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutations in specimens with immunoreactive trypsinogen values >/=62 ng/mL (top 1.6%); and (3) performing DNA sequencing on specimens found to have only 1 mutation in step 2. Infants with >/=2 mutations/variants were referred to CF care centers for diagnostic evaluation and follow-up. Infants with 1 mutation were considered carriers and their parents offered telephone genetic counseling. RESULTS: Overall, 345 CF cases, 533 CFTR-related metabolic syndrome cases, and 1617 carriers were detected; 28 cases of CF were missed. Of the 345 CF cases, 20 (5.8%) infants were initially assessed as having CFTR-related metabolic syndrome, and their CF diagnosis occurred after age 6 months (median follow-up: 4.5 years). Program sensitivity was 92%, and the positive predictive value was 34%. CF prevalence was 1 in 6899 births. A total of 303 CFTR mutations were identified, including 78 novel variants. The median age at referral to a CF care center was 34 days (18 and 37 days for step 2 and 3 screening test-positive infants, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: The 3-step model had high detection and low false-positive levels in this diverse population.
