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]

Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome

Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jan 21, 2024	This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 350 of the FLCN protein (p.Arg350Trp). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. 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: 485589). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt FLCN protein function with a positive 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	St. Jude Molecular Pathology, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital	Aug 17, 2022	The FLCN c.1048C>T (p.Arg350Trp) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.0080% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). The in silico tool REVEL predicts a deleterious effect on protein function, but to our knowledge this prediction has not been confirmed by functional studies. In addition, a computational saturation assay on protein structural destabilization showed that this variant would not change protein structure (PMID: 33137092). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals with Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome. In summary, the evidence currently available is insufficient to determine the clinical significance of this variant. It has therefore been classified as of uncertain significance. -

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter

clinical testing

Ambry Genetics

May 17, 2021

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
