Cystic Fibrosis
This presentation contains:
• Clinical manifestations of CF.
• Clinical photographs and X-rays.
• Molecular genetic basis of CF, including the structure of the CFTR gene, PCR and
sequencing.
• Examples of pedigrees and explanation of risk calculation.
• CF Case scenario.

Cystic fibrosis
• Affects 1 in 2,500 babies in the UK (240 babies
annually)
• Recessively inherited
• Lifelong, life-limiting illness
• Affects the lungs, digestive tract and pancreas by
clogging them with thick, sticky mucus
• Daily physiotherapy, dietary supplements and
intensive treatment for chest infections

Cystic Fibrosis (1)
Commonest AR-inherited disease amongst Northern European Caucasians
• Incidence in UK Caucasian population 1 in 2,500 carrier risk 1 in 25
• Incidence in UK Asian population 1 in 10,000 carrier risk 1 in 50

Cystic Fibrosis (2)
•Gland secretions thicker or more viscous than normal
•Small bowel: obstruction (meconium ileus in the newborn)
•Lungs : thick bronchial mucous, recurrent chest infections, progressive
lung damage, heart/lung transplantation

Cystic Fibrosis (3)
•Pancreas: failure to secrete digestive enzymes causing malabsorption,
failure of growth and late development
•Men nearly always infertile – absence/atrophy of vas deferens
•Lifelong potentially fatal disease

Cystic Fibrosis Gene
•Large gene encoding 1480 amino acids
•Over 1,100 different mutations identified in the gene
•Routinely test for 29 commonest mutations
•If mutation/s not found in clinically affected child - send DNA to laboratory to
be tested for rarer mutations

Cystic fibrosis gene mutations
•Commonest mutation – Delta F508
UK Caucasians - 75%
UK Asians
- 29%
•Common mutation found in 1 in 10 UK Asians - Y569D (substitution G - T)
•Delta F508 and 28 others account for 85% mutations in the Northern
European Caucasian population

admissions, physiotherapy and constant medications.

Pedigree of Joanne Brown’s family
Note the complete absence of any family history of cystic fibrosis. Autosomal recessive conditions commonly
present as a single isolated case.

Structure of the CFTR gene
An alternative graphical display of Human Genome Project data, as displayed by the ENSEMBL genome browser.
Some closely spaced exons appear as a single bar. The arrow shows the 5’ → 3’ direction of the sense strand.

A multiplex allele-specific PCR test for 29 common CFTR mutations
The same seven samples are amplified with different cocktails of primers in the two gels. No mutation is
detected in lanes 3 or 4. Extra bands in the other lanes define particular mutations by their presence and size.

DNA sequencer trace of part of the exon 14b PCR product from Joanne Brown’s CFTR gene
At the arrowed position G and C nucleotides are both present, showing that Joanne is heterozygous for a
nucleotide substitution (remember that the products of PCR and sequencing are normally a mix of the products
from the two alleles). Control samples show only the G. It is usual to sequence both strands of the DNA
separately to confirm any change. In this case the sequence shown is of the reverse strand, so in the sense
strand the change in Joanne is C>G.
