The recorded framework is ClinGen VHL VCEP v1.1.0. The criteria and strengths shown below come from the saved assessment; this page does not recalculate the classification.
The applied criteria and their strengths are shown as assessed under the stated framework.
No pathogenic criterion marked as applied in the recorded assessment.
Per VHL VCEP v1.1.0, BS1 is met at Strong strength. The gnomAD v4.1 GroupMax Filtering Allele Frequency is 0.0001103 (0.01103%), which exceeds the VCEP BS1 cutoff of ≥0.0000156 (0.00156%). The variant is present at 16 alleles in gnomAD v4.1 (AF = 1.04e-5) with the highest subpopulation frequency in the South Asian population (AF = 0.000179, 15/83,692 alleles). This frequency is higher than expected for von Hippel-Lindau disease.
Per VHL VCEP v1.1.0, BP4 can be applied to assess lack of splicing impact. SpliceAI predicts no splicing effect (max delta score = 0.00, ≤0.1). Per VCEP guidance, SpliceAI alone may be applied when VarSeak is unable to accept the variant type. Missense predictors are explicitly excluded from BP4 per VCEP, but splicing assessment via SpliceAI is permitted. No splice effect is predicted.

NM_000551.3:c.104C>T (p.Ala35Val) is a missense variant in exon 1 of VHL, located in the N-terminal region prior to the p19 Met54 initiation site and outside all critical functional domains (Beta: AA63-154, Alpha: AA156-192, Second Beta: AA193-204).
This variant is present in gnomAD v4.1 at 16 of 1,544,318 alleles (allele frequency 1.04e-5) with a GroupMax Filtering Allele Frequency of 0.01103% (0.0001103) in the South Asian population, exceeding the VHL VCEP BS1 threshold of ≥0.00156% (BS1_Strong).
SpliceAI predicts no splicing impact (max delta score = 0.00), meeting the VHL VCEP BP4 criterion for lack of splice effect at Supporting strength.
REVEL score is 0.307, below the VHL VCEP PP3 threshold of ≥0.664. BayesDel score is -0.264 (benign direction). In silico predictors do not support pathogenicity.
No variant-specific functional data, segregation data, de novo observations, or proband phenotype data are available. The variant has not been reported in COSMIC and does not lie in a statistically significant mutational hotspot.
ClinVar classifies this variant as Uncertain significance (variation ID 526678) based on 3 clinical laboratory submissions with no expert panel review.
Applying the VHL VCEP v1.1.0 classification rules: BS1_Strong (1 strong benign) + BP4_Supporting (1 supporting benign) meets Rule 18 criteria for Likely Benign.
