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
Classification was made for transcript
Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -12 ACMG points.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.93). 
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.000551 (84/152350) while in subpopulation SAS AF = 0.0165 (80/4834). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0136. There are 1 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 71 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position passed quality control check. 
BS2
High AC in GnomAd4 at 84 AD gene.
