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

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points.

PVS1
Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 58 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 3-10149848-C-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr3-10149848-C-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 1298905.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

PVS1, PS4_Supporting, PM2_Supporting c.525C>A, located in exon 3 of the VHL gene, is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation p.(Tyr175*)(PVS1).It is not present in the population database gnomAD v2.1.1, non cancer dataset (PM2_supporting). The SpliceAI algorithm predicts no significant impact on splicing. This variant has been identified an individual affected with Von Hippel-Lindau syndrome (internal data)(PS4_Supporting). The variant has been reported in the ClinVar database (1x pathogenic) and is not present in the LOVD database. Based on currently available information, the variant c.525C>A is classified as a pathogenic variant according to ClinGen VHL Expert Panel Specifications to the ACMG/AMP Variant Interpretation Guidelines for VHL Version 1.1.0. -
