Genes affected
VHL (HGNC:12687): (von Hippel-Lindau tumor suppressor) This gene encodes a component of a ubiquitination complex. The encoded protein is involved in the ubiquitination and degradation of hypoxia-inducible-factor (HIF), which is a transcription factor that plays a central role in the regulation of gene expression by oxygen. In addition to oxygen-related gene expression, this protein plays a role in many other cellular processes including cilia formation, cytokine signaling, regulation of senescence, and formation of the extracellular matrix. Variants of this gene are associated with von Hippel-Lindau syndrome, pheochromocytoma, erythrocytosis, renal cell carcinoma, and cerebellar hemangioblastoma. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2022]

This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 112 of the VHL protein (p.Tyr112Cys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of von Hippel-Lindau syndrome type 2C (PMID: 26268347; internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 223189). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt VHL protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Tyr112 amino acid residue in VHL. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 8956040, 10408776, 10823831, 19030229, 21204227). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The p.Y112C variant (also known as c.335A>G), located in coding exon 1 of the VHL gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 335. The tyrosine at codon 112 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This variant was determined to be functionally intermediate in one saturation genome editing assay (Buckley M et al. Nat Genet, 2024 Jul;56:1446-1455). This variant was reported in individual(s) with features consistent with von Hippel Lindau syndrome (Ambry internal data; Kozaczuk S et al. Ital J Pediatr, 2015 Aug;41:56; Minnella AM et al. J Med Case Rep, 2018 Sep;12:248; Reich M et al. Acta Ophthalmol, 2021 Dec;99:e1492-e1500). Another variant at the same codon, p.Y112H (c.334T>C), has been identified in individual(s) with features consistent with VHL (Tisherman SE et al. Arch Intern Med, 1993 Nov;153:2550-6; Chen F et al. Hum Mutat, 1995;5:66-75; Chen F et al. J Med Genet, 1996 Aug;33:716-7; Nielsen SM et al. Am J Med Genet A, 2011 Jan;155A:168-73). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
