Folliculin variants linked to Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome are targeted for proteasomal degradation

2020-03-31

Abstract excerpt

Germline mutations in the folliculin ( FLCN ) tumor suppressor gene are linked to Birt-Hogg-Dubé (BHD) syndrome, a dominantly inherited genetic disease characterized by predisposition to fibrofolliculomas, lung cysts, and renal cancer. Most BHD-linked FLCN variants include large deletions and splice site aberrations predicted to cause loss of function. The mechanisms by which missense variants and short in-frame...
