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 Likely_benign. Variant got -1 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.22).
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=0.204 with no splicing effect.

This sequence change affects codon 107 of the VHL mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the VHL protein. This variant is not present in population databases and has not been reported in the literature. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of silent changes on mRNA splicing suggest that this variant may alter mRNA splicing, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. In summary, this is a novel silent change with uncertain impact on splicing. It has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
