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]

ENSG00000264187 (HGNC:):

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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 17-17215312-AAACTCTGTAAC-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-17215312-AAACTCTGTAAC-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 242814.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars. Variant chr17-17215312-AAACTCTGTAAC-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome (PMID: 22146830, 28869776). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant results in the deletion of part of exon 12 (c.1301-7_1304del) of the FLCN gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in FLCN are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15852235). -
