Three complex alleles of CFTR gene identified in Lebanese, Egyptian and French population and their potential impact on splicing

Abstract: Cystic Fibrosis (CF) in Arab Mediterranean countries has a different CFTR mutational profile if compared either to Caucasians or in the Arabian Peninsula. The c.3909C>G (N1303K, p.Asn1303Lys) mutation of the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator gene (CFTR). This mutation represents a higher frequency in the Mediterranean countries in association with different polymorphisms or mutations in cis position constituting various complex alleles. N1303K mutation induces many phenotypes, especially panc… Show more

“…The level of improvement was similar to that observed for F508del patients. The variability of the response was not explained by lung severity at baseline nor additional mutations in cis of N1303K (34). Interestingly, we identified S/Z alpha1 antitrypsin genotype and gain of function SLC26A4 and SCNN1A (35,36) variants in non or transient responders, suggesting that additional genes must be investigated in pwCF displaying an atypical response to ETI.…”

“…Investigation of potential other genetic factors accounting for the variability in response to ETI was performed in non or transient responders from the French cohort (#6, #8, #9, #15, and #16) and in 2 patients from the Italian cohort (patient ME084 and ME087) respectively weak responder and best responder (Supplemental Manuscript). Only the frequent haplotype described in cis with N1303K (c.[744-33GATT [6];869+11C>T]) was observed (34) and no other CFTR variant was identified as a complex allele. Three of the five French patients carried variants in other genes: patient #6 was a compound heterozygote for SERPINA1 Z and S variants, a genotype responsible for alpha1-antitrypsin deficiency ; Patient #15 carried a pathogenic variant in the SLC26A4 gene, R185T, involved in Pendred syndrome (35), patient #16 carried a gain-of-function variant in the SCNN1A gene, R181W (36).…”
