Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Strong PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000551.4(VHL):​c.485G>A​(p.Cys162Tyr) variant causes a missense change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. C162F) has been classified as Pathogenic.

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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a helix (size 11) in uniprot entity VHL_HUMAN there are 18 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_000551.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr3-10149808-G-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.992
• PP5: Variant 3-10149808-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr3-10149808-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 223225.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

The p.C162Y variant (also known as c.485G>A), located in coding exon 3 of the VHL gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 485. The cysteine at codon 162 is replaced by tyrosine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This alteration has been identified in multiple individuals with hemangioblastomas (Kondo K. Hum Mol Genet, 1995 Dec;4:2233-7; Woodward ER et al. Brain, 2007 Mar;130:836-42; de Rojas-P I et al. Cells, 2021 Sep;10; Ambry internal data). This alteration was also identified in families with von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) (Yoshida M et al. Jpn J Cancer Res, 2000 Feb;91:204-12, Zhang J et al. J Cancer Res Clin Oncol, 2008 Nov;134:1211-8). This alteration is also known as 698G>A in published literature. 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). Another alteration at the same codon, p.C162R (c.484T>C), has been reported in numerous families diagnosed with VHL (Chen F et al. Hum Mutat. 1995;5:66-75; Gallou C et al. Hum. Mutat. 1999;13:464-75; Cho HJ et al. J. Korean Med. Sci. 2009 Feb;24:77-83; Zhang J et al. Chin Med J (Engl). 2015 Jan;128:32-8). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
