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]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 0 ACMG points.

PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.921
BP6
Variant 17-17222564-C-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr17-17222564-C-T is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 253233.
BS2
High AC in GnomAd4 at 6 AD gene. Variant has AC lower than other variant known as pathogenic in the gene, so the strength is limited to Supporting.
