A Unique Mutation in the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) Gene Causing Cystic Fibrosis in a Pakistani Child: A Case Highlighting the Need for More Awareness.
Curēus 2024 Februrary
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a recessively inherited disease most commonly seen in Caucasians. The mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene are responsible for the condition, and to date, more than 2000 mutations have been published in the literature. The most common mutation worldwide is F508del. Here, we reported a five-year-old child who presented to the clinic with a chronic cough. Her newborn screening for CF was negative, including 139 mutation panels done in India. The sweat chloride test was positive, and CF gene sequencing was reported as c.2489dup p. (Glu831GLYFS *5) homozygotes mutation in the CFTR gene (Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) *602421). To the best of our knowledge, this gene was first described and published in the literature.
