RCV001316060 | SCV001506661 | uncertain significance | Chuvash polycythemia; Von Hippel-Lindau syndrome | 2021-09-01 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces glutamic acid with lysine at codon 36 of the VHL protein (p.Glu36Lys). The glutamic acid residue is weakly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between glutamic acid and lysine. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate insufficient coverage at this position in the ExAC database. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with VHL-related conditions. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt VHL protein function. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. |
