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]

Submissions by phenotype

not provided Uncertain:3
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoSep 16, 2022To the best of our knowledge, the variant has not been reported in the published literature. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000085 (11/129108 chromosomes in European (Non-Finnish) subpopulation, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is higher than would generally be expected for pathogenic variants in this gene. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMay 10, 2023In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 17028174) -
Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 19, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 477 of the FLCN protein (p.Arg477Gln). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with FLCN-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 322061). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this missense change on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (Invitae). 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. -

Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 10, 2021This 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. -
