Notes

rs80338683, also known as c.1285delC and p.His429Thrfs, represents a rare mutation in the FLCN gene on chromosome 17. The rare alternative allele has been linked to Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome. Mutations in a novel gene lead to kidney tumors, lung wall defects, and benign tumors of the hair follicle in patients with the Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome.
