Description

Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect: Variant does not bind to elongin B or elongin C, resulting in an unstable protein that is rapidly degraded by the proteasome (Schoenfeld 2000); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect; Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Also known as p.(R208W) and p.(R238W); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 28873162, 14973063, 10205047, 9156047, 21519372, 23512077, 18836774, 12000816, 25119015, 19602254, 10900011, 7987306, 25563310, 27539324, 27527340, 27682873, 28944243, 28094316, 9829912, 22799452, 9829911, 8956040, 29124493, 25390905, 16042317, 29616089, 30522901, 30042107, 20233476, 29625052, 33745191, 32561571, 31589614, 30787465, 34377882, 34439168, 33828526, 34036514)

Description

The VHL c.499C>T; p.Arg167Trp variant (rs5030820), also reported as p.Arg238Trp, is a common pathogenic variant in individuals and families affected with Von Hippel-Lindau syndrome (Crossey 1994, Fishbein 2013, Peng 2017, Wang 2018, Zhang 2015). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 2218), and is only observed on two alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The arginine at codon 167 is highly conserved, and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is deleterious. Functional analyses of the variant protein show loss of elongin binding leading to VHL protein degradation (Leonardi 2011, Ohh 1999, Peng 2017, Schoenfeld 2000). Additionally, other amino acid substitutions at this codon (Gln, Gly, Leu, Pro) have been reported in individuals with Von Hippel-Lindau syndrome and are considered pathogenic (Crossey 1994, Zhang 2015). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Crossey PA et al.
