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]

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.246C>T; p.Cys82Cys variant (rs150712346) does not alter the amino acid sequence of the FLCN protein and computational splice site prediction algorithms do not predict a change in the nearest splice site or creation of a cryptic splice site (Alamut v2.9.0). This variant has not been reported in association with any hereditary cancer syndromes in the medical literature or in gene specific variation databases. This variant is listed in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) with an overall population frequency of 0.02 percent (identified on 56 out of 276,584 chromosomes). Based on these observations, the p.Cys82Cys variant is likely to be benign. -

Significance:Likely benign

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

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. -
