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]
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]

Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome Pathogenic:2
Feb 16, 2023
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change results in a frameshift in the FLCN gene (p.Lys534Alafs*67). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 46 amino acid(s) of the FLCN protein and extend the protein by 20 additional amino acid residues. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts a region of the FLCN protein in which other variant(s) (p.Trp553*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 28558743). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. This frameshift has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome (PMID: 27220747). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD no frequency). -
