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]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp511*) in the FLCN gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 69 amino acid(s) of the FLCN protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of FLCN-related condition (PMID: 17496196, 20413710, 22441547). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 3372). This variant disrupts a region of the FLCN protein in which other variant(s) (p.Arg527*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 15852235, 17028174). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
