Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000003531 SCV000549477 pathogenic Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome 2025-01-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.His429Thrfs*39) 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). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome (PMID: 12471204, 15852235, 20301695, 25519458, 25827758). This variant is also known as c.1733delC. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 3364). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Ambry Genetics RCV000492709 SCV000580727 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2025-02-03 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.1285delC pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 8 of the FLCN gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 1285, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.H429Tfs*39). This mutation has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals with features consistent with Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome, including fibrofolliculomas, spontaneous pneumothorax, lung cysts, benign renal cysts, and renal tumors (Khoo SK et al. J. Med. Genet. 2002 Dec;39:906-12; Schmidt LS et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2005 Jun;76:1023-33; Toro JR et al. J. Med. Genet. 2008 Jun;45:321-31; Whitworth J et al. JAMA Oncol. 2016 Mar;2:373-9; Rossing M et al. J. Hum. Genet. 2017 Feb;62:151-157). Of note, this alteration is also designated as c.1733delC in published literature. 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.
ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV000082625 SCV001157602 pathogenic not provided 2023-12-06 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The FLCN c.1285delC; p.His429fs variant (rs80338683), also known as 1733delC, is reported in several individuals and families with Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome (Khoo 2002, Ray 2015, Whitworth 2016, Xing 2017), and is reported as pathogenic in ClinVar (Variation ID: 3364). This variant causes a frameshift by deleting a single nucleotide, so it is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. REFERENCES Khoo SK et al. Clinical and genetic studies of Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome. J Med Genet. 2002 Dec;39(12):906-12.

In the published literature, this variant has been reported in multiple individuals with Birt-Hogg-Dube (BHD) syndrome (PMIDs: 28839995 (2017), 27734835 (2017), 26659639 (2016), 25827758 (2015), 25519458 (2014), 18234728 (2008)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000012 (3/245324 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is consistent with pathogenicity. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic.

This is a common reoccurring variant reported in individuals and families with Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome (Table 1, Khoo et al. 2002. PubMed ID: 12471204; Fontcuberta et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21401403; Radzikowska E et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 34229741). This variant is reported in 3 of ~245,000 alleles in gnomAD; However, the quality of this data is questionable and should be interpreted with caution. It is interpreted as pathogenic in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/3364/). Frameshift variants in FLCN are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic.
