Summary

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder caused by mutations in the gene encoding CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), which is located at 7q31.2 and encodes 1480 amino acids. CFTR protein is responsible for regulating the transport of electrolytes and chloride across epithelial and mucus-producing cell membranes.
