This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000551.4(VHL):c.500G>A (p.Arg167Gln) variant in VHL is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of arginine by glutamine at amino acid 167. This missense mutation has been identified in at least 19 unrelated individuals with von Hippel-Lindau disease. Mostly VHL Type 2 or 2B phenotypes are noted. However, some publications describe VHL Type 1 as well. PMIDs used: 20846682, 8707293, 9829912, 9829911, 7728151, 12114495, 12624160, 14722919. CIViC EIDs used (https://civicdb.org): 5485, 5354, 5264, 5062, 4913, 5487, 5546, 6118. 2 participating commercial laboratories reported >7 and >20 cases. The number of proband and/or family cases fulfills the criteria for strong evidence (PS4). Multiple publications (PMID:15574766, PMID:19030229) support disruption of Elongin C binding with the Arg167Gln variant, as well as altered regulation of HIF2a and near wild type regulation via ubiquitination of HIF1a (PS3_Supporting). A de novo (and mosaic ~5.5% allele freq in blood and ~34% in a pheochromocytoma at ~80% tumor purity) case was identified in a 16yo with no family history of VHL and fulfilling Danish Criteria for VHL (The 16yo had the following: Hb, pheochromocytoma, pancreatic endocrine tumor, left adrenal nodule). PMID:30731206, CIViC evidence ID: EID7714. 1 commercial laboratory reports a de novo case in a child with bilateral retinal hemangiomas in the age range of 10yo (PM6). This variant is absent from gnomAD v4.1.0 (PM2_Supporting). Arg167 is one of the germline hotspots outlined by the VHL VCEP, and it is in the Elongin binding domain (PM1). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.874, which is above the threshold of >=0.664, evidence that correlates with impact to VHL function (PP3). Per VHL VCEP specifications, this code is applied when the REVEL score is >=0.6. (PP3). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Pathogenic 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/CA020454/MONDO:0008667/078
