Genes affected

FLCN (HGNC:27310): (folliculin) This gene is located within the Smith-Magenis syndrome region on chromosome 17. Mutations in this gene are associated with Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome, which is characterized by fibrofolliculomas, renal tumors, lung cysts, and pneumothorax. Alternative splicing of this gene results in two transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 8 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.15689655 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 4.5, offset of 38, new splice context is: gcaGTaggt. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 17-17227888-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-17227888-C-T is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 2704350.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
