The Novel CFTR Mutation A457P in a Male with a Delayed Diagnosis of Cystic Fibrosis by Kate H. Cole, Patrick R. Sosnay, Lonny B. Yarmus, Jonathan B. Zuckerman

“…The A457P mutation appears to confer a relatively mild phenotype, as is usually observed with CFTR class IV–VI defects. With the advent of more comprehensive and widely available genetic testing techniques, identification of CF genotypes in patients with milder disease variants may help stratify patients for targeted therapy and prevent late complications of the disease.…”
