Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 5 ACMG points: 5P and 0B. PP3PM2_SupportingPM1PS3_Supporting
This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000551.3(VHL):c.273C>A (p.Phe91Leu) variant in VHL is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of phenylalanine by leucine at amino acid 91. This variant has been reported in 2 unrelated probands. Dolfus et al reports a VHL subject with (c.263 G>C; p.F91L) from a family in the French VHL Registry, the individual did not have renal involvement. No further phenotypic description is provided. (PMID:15300849). Gallou et al (PMID:15300849) reports a VHL subject with retinal hemangioblastomas and (c.273 C>G and p.F91L). Olschwang et al (1998) is likely the same subject as Gallou et al and is not included in the proband count. Two of three participating commercial laboratories reports 4 cases with this variant, however none have VHL-related cancers. Given the sparse phenotypic descriptions in the two publications, and the 4 samples lacking VHL phenotypes from commercial laboratories, the ClinGen VHL VCEP does not recommend applying this code. (PS4_NOT_MET). This variant is absent from gnomAD v4.1.0 (PM2_Supporting). In Tarade et al, an in vitro pVHL-HIFa binding assay followed by immunoblotting showed the the F91L variant abolished all binding to HIF1a and HIF2a (PMID:31337753)(PS3_Supporting).This variant resides within a region of VHL that is defined as a critical functional domain (the Beta Domain) (PM1). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.773, which is above the threshold of >=0.664, evidence that correlates with impact to VHL function (PP3). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Uncertain for autosomal-dominant von Hippel-Lindau disease (VHL disease) based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen VHL VCEP Version 1.0 (Specifications approval date: 02/26/2024. Variant Approval Date 06/25/2024). LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA16611270/MONDO:0008667/078

Von Hippel-Lindau syndrome;C1837915:Chuvash polycythemia Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Invitae | Jun 14, 2022 | Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt VHL protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 411978). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with retinal hemangioblastoma (PMID: 12202531). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 91 of the VHL protein (p.Phe91Leu). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects VHL function (PMID: 31337753). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. - |
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Feb 16, 2024 | The p.F91L variant (also known as c.273C>A), located in coding exon 1 of the VHL gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 273. The phenylalanine at codon 91 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been reported in one individual with a retinal hemangioblastoma (Dollfus H et al. Invest. Ophthalmol. Vis. Sci., 2002 Sep;43:3067-74), and an alteration with the same amino acid change, but different nucleotide substitution (c.273C>G; F91L) has been reported in one family reported to have with VHL, but no additional clinical details provided (Gallou C et al. Hum. Mutat., 2004 Sep;24:215-24). In vitro studies indicate this alteration disrupts binding to both HIF1α and HIF2α (Tarade D et al. Nat Commun., 2019 07;10:3293). Based on our internal structural assessment, this alteration results in perturbation of the HIF1α-binding pocket (Ambry internal data). However, this alteration has been observed in our cohort in individuals who do not have a personal or family history that is consistent with VHL-associated disease (Ambry internal data). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. - |
