Description
This variant, c.738_761del, results in the deletion of 8 amino acid(s) of the CTRC protein (p.Lys247_Arg254del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (rs746224507, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with CTRC-associated pancreatitis, especially in the European population. In a compiled analysis of four case-control studies involving 1,739 cases and 3,686 controls, this variant was significantly associated with increased risk for pancreatitis (PMID: 18059268, 18172691, 20625975, 22427236, 22942235). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 132150). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on protein structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that this variant affects CTRC function (PMID: 18059268, 22942235). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
