anti-FLCN antibody
Description: May be a tumor suppressor. May be involved in energy and/or nutrient sensing through the AMPK and mTOR signaling pathways. May regulate phosphorylation of RPS6KB1.
Post Translational Modifications: Phosphorylated. Several different phosphorylated forms exist.
Subunit Structure: Interacts (via C-terminus) with FNIP1 and FNIP2 (via C-terminus). This mediates indirect interaction with the PRKAA1, PRKAB1 and PRKAG1 subunits of 5'-AMP-activated protein kinase (PubMed:17028174, PubMed:18403135, PubMed:18663353, PubMed:27353360). Interacts with HSP90AA1 in the presence of FNIP1. Interacts with HSP70, STUB1, CDC37, AHSA1, CCT2, STIP1, PTGES3 and PPP5C (PubMed:27353360).
Similarity: Belongs to the folliculin family.

NCBI Summary for FLCN
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]
