Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 5 ACMG points: 5P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PP3

The NM_144997.7(FLCN):​c.1287C>A​(p.His429Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. H429N) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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]

ENSG00000264187 (HGNC:):

MPRIP (HGNC:30321): (myosin phosphatase Rho interacting protein) Enables cadherin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in actin filament organization. Located in actin cytoskeleton and cytosol. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 5 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 3 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 11 benign, 34 uncertain in NM_144997.7
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.791

This sequence change replaces histidine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 429 of the FLCN protein (p.His429Gln). 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FLCN-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). -
