Mutations of the gene FNIP1 associated with a syndromic autosomal recessive immunodeficiency with cardiomyopathy and pre-excitation syndrome.

: AMPK (adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase) is phosphorylated (AMPK-P) in response to low energy through allosteric activation by Adenosine mono- or diphosphate (AMP/ADP). Folliculin (FLCN) and the FLCN-interacting proteins 1 and 2 (FNIP1, 2) modulate AMPK. FNIP1 deficiency patients have a AMPK-P gain of function phenotype with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, Wolff-Parkinson-White pre-excitation syndrome, myopathy of skeletal muscles and combined immunodeficiency.
