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]

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu418Trpfs*50) in the FLCN gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in FLCN are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15852235). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome (PMID: 18234728, 23848572). This variant is also known as 1707delC. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 220767). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: FLCN c.1252delC (p.Leu418TrpfsX50) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant was absent in 249330 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1252delC has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Birt-Hogg-Dube Syndrome (Toro_2008, Raymond_2014, Boland_2020). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. Four ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This frameshift variant alters the translational reading frame of the FLCN mRNA and causes the premature termination of FLCN protein synthesis. This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals with Birt-Hogg-Dube (BHD) syndrome (PMIDs: 33482948 (2020), 23848572 (2014), 18234728 (2008)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

The c.1252delC pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 8 of the FLCN gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 1252, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.L418Wfs*50). This mutation has been identified in multiple patients affected with Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome (Toro JR et al. J Med Genet, 2008 Jun;45:321-31; Raymond VM et al. Clin. Endocrinol. (Oxf), 2014 Jun;80:925-7; Boland J et al. Perm J, 2020 11;24:1-6). Of note, this alteration is also designated as 1707delC in published literature. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
