Abstract excerpt
The intricate nature of complex alleles presents challenges in the classification of CFTR gene mutations, encompassing potential disease-causing, neutral, or treatment-modulating effects. Notably, the complex allele [E217G;G509D] remains absent from international databases, with its pathogenicity yet to be established. Assessing the functionality of apical membrane ion channels in intestinal epithelium employed...
