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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxDec 31, 2019Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; In-silico analysis, which includes splice predictors and evolutionary conservation, is inconclusive as to whether the variant alters gene splicing. In the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown. -

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 05, 2019This 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. -

FLCN-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesAug 02, 2024The FLCN c.396+4A>G variant is predicted to interfere with splicing. This variant is predicted to alter splicing based on available splicing prediction programs (SpliceAI, Jaganathan et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30661751). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.037% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. It has conflicting interpretations of likely benign and uncertain significance in ClinVar (https://preview.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/409395/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
