Cystic fibrosis is a common, fatal disorder caused by abnormalities in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. CFTR encodes a chloride channel that regulates secretion in many exocrine tissues. The presentation of cystic fibrosis is highly variable as measured by the age

The N1303K mutation was identified in the second nucleotide binding fold of the cystic fibrosis (CF) gene last year. We have gathered data from laboratories throughout Europe and the United States of America in order to estimate its frequency and to attempt to characterise the clinical manifestation

We have collated the results of cystic fibrosis (CF) mutation analysis conducted in 19 laboratories in France. We have analyzed 7,420 CF alleles, demonstrating a total of 310 different mutations including 24 not reported previously, accounting for 93.56% of CF genes. The most common were F508del (67
