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]

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant, c.483_500dup, results in the insertion of 6 amino acid(s) to the VHL protein (p.Cys162_Arg167dup), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of von Hippel-Lindau syndrome (Invitae, external communication). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 480846). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. This variant disrupts the alpha domain of the VHL protein, which is required for interaction with Elongin C (PMID: 10205047). While functional studies have not been performed to directly test the effect of this variant on VHL protein function, this suggests that disruption of this region of the protein is causative of disease. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.483_500dup18 pathogenic mutation (also known as p.C162_R167dup), located in coding exon 3 of the VHL gene, results from an in-frame duplication of 18 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 483 to 500. This results in the duplication of 6 extra residues (CLQVVR) between codons 162 and 167. Based on internal structural assessment, this alteration inhibits elongin binding (Van Molle I et al. Chem. Biol. 2012 Oct;19(10):1300-12). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
