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]

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 68 of the FLCN protein (p.Ser68Arg). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FLCN-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1519156). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt FLCN protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.S68R variant (also known as c.202A>C), located in coding exon 1 of the FLCN gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 202. The serine at codon 68 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear.
