Germline mutations in the FLCN gene cause Birt‐Hogg‐Dubé syndrome, familial spontaneous pneumothorax, or apparently nonsyndromic inherited RCC. The vast majority of reported FLCN mutations are predicted to result in a truncated/absent gene product and so infrequent missense and inframe‐deletion (IFD) FLCN mutations might indicate critical functional domains. To investigate this hypothesis we (1) undertook...
Birt‐Hogg‐Dubé syndrome (BHD) is an autosomal dominant condition characterised by the presence of facial fibrofolliculomas, pulmonary cysts which may be associated with spontaneous pneumothorax and renal tumours. Germline mutations in the gene Folliculin (FLCN) were first identified in BHD patients in 2002. In addition FLCN mutations have also been described in families with isolated primary spontaneous...
