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]

Submissions by phenotype

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 21, 2023The p.R218H variant (also known as c.653G>A), located in coding exon 4 of the FLCN gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 653. The arginine at codon 218 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJun 09, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 218 of the FLCN protein (p.Arg218His). 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. 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 not expected to disrupt FLCN protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 409381). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FLCN-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs367843558, gnomAD 0.003%). -
