Invitae | RCV001031134 | SCV001194440 | pathogenic | Chuvash polycythemia; Von Hippel-Lindau syndrome | 2019-12-23 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is a gross deletion of the genomic region encompassing exons 1 and 2 of the VHL gene, which includes the initiator codon. The 5' end of this event is unknown as it extends beyond the assayed region for this gene and therefore may encompass additional genes. The 3' boundary is likely confined to intron 2 of the VHL gene. This is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of von Hippel-Lindau syndrome (PMID: 10830910, 27527340). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. Loss-of-function variants in VHL are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 8956040, 12202531). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. |
