Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Several studies have shown that the VHL protein created from a downstream methionine located at codon 54 is biologically active, and exhibits properties similar to the full-length, wild-type protein (PMID: 9671762, 9751722). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 411960). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with hypertension (PMID: 32561571). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp8*) in the VHL gene. It is unclear whether it will result in an absent or disrupted protein product because an in-frame methionine located at codon 54 has the potential to rescue this variant.
