Predicted to enable enzyme binding activity and enzyme inhibitor activity. Predicted to contribute to GTPase activator activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including regulation of intracellular signal transduction; regulation of nucleobase-containing compound metabolic process; and regulation of protein modification process. Predicted to act upstream of or within with a positive effect on negative regulation of cell population proliferation. Predicted to act upstream of or within negative regulation of epithelial cell proliferation and positive regulation of intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cilium; lysosomal membrane; and microtubule cytoskeleton. Predicted to be part of FNIP-folliculin RagC/D GAP. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Predicted to colocalize with cell-cell contact zone and midbody. Used to study renal cell carcinoma. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome; colorectal cancer; primary spontaneous pneumothorax; and renal cell carcinoma. Orthologous to human FLCN (folliculin); PARTICIPATES IN mTOR signaling pathway; renal cell carcinoma pathway; INTERACTS WITH 1-benzylpiperazine; 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzodioxine; 2,6-dinitrotoluene.

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.
in heterozygotes, a germline insertion of one nucleotide resulting in a nonsense mutation gives rise to renal adenocarcinomas by the age of 6 months; homozygosity is lethal at an early stage of embryogenesis
10 of 11 renal carcinomas showed a loss of heterozygosity at the Bhd locus and the one LOH-negative case displayed a spontaneous nonsense point mutation at the second Bhd locus
