Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PVS1 PM2 PP5_Moderate

The NM_144997.7(FLCN):​c.1323delCinsGA​(p.His442ThrfsTer14) variant causes a frameshift, synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. VH441VT?) has been classified as Pathogenic. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

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 17-17215294-G-TC is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-17215294-G-TC is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 242379.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.His442Thrfs*14) 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). Information on the frequency of this variant in the gnomAD database is not available, as this variant may be reported differently in the database. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome (PMID: 22146830, 28869776). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
