Note: this mutation was submitted but not yet reviewed by our curator.

cDNA Name c.2989-977_3367+248del 
Exon or Intron exon 19 - exon 20 
Legacy Exon or Intron exon 17a - exon 17b 
Legacy Name 3121-977_3499+248del2515 
Other Details The deletion was detected using semi-quantitative fluorescent multiplex PCR and the deletion junctions were subsequently characterized by long-range PCR and sequencing. The 3U breakpoint is located at the IVS17b(TA) microsatellite, leaving a stretch of 7(TA). In 2 cases, the deletion is carried/transmitted by the fathers; in the other 2, by the mother. Three families are from Eastern France. The deletion is linked to a common CFTR haplotype (IVS1(CA)-IVS8(CA)-IVS17b(CA)). The IVS17b(TA) site in included in the deletion.

Submitted Phenotype Details This deletion was first identified in a 20 yrs old female who was diagnosed with CF at 1 month and who was heterozygous for F508del. She has pulmonary symptoms and PI. Sweat chloride values were above 100 mEq/l. The anomaly was identified in three other cases: - in another 21 yrs old female diagnosed with typical CF in childhood and bearing F508del on the other chromosome; - in the father of two deceased CF children. - in a 35 yrs old CF patient diagnosed at 1 yr and bearing F508del on the other chromosome.
