Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -4 ACMG points: 2P and 6B. PM1BP4_ModerateBS2

The NM_144997.7(FLCN):c.1285C>T(p.His429Tyr) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000205 in 1,611,982 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. H429N) has been classified as Likely benign.

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]

In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Observed in an individual with primary spontaneous pneumothorax (Ren et al., 2008); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 21937013, 29357828, 19802896, 17028174, 31937788, 18505456) -

This sequence change replaces histidine, which is basic and polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 429 of the FLCN protein (p.His429Tyr). This variant is present in population databases (rs375082054, gnomAD 0.03%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PMID: 18505456). This variant is also known as 1740C>T. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 485611). 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 with a negative 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. -

This alteration is classified as 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. -
