Germline mutations in the VHL gene and related phenotypes in 82 patients from 34 unrelated Polish families fulfilling clinical VHL criteria

Phenotype
Family NoMutationCodonConsequenceDescriptionrHABcHABRCCPhaeoNo of affected
Mutations in cases 1–18 were detected by direct sequencing.
Deletions in cases 19–23 (S1–S5) were detected by long PCR.28
Cases 24–34 were analysed by multiplex PCR.
*In these cases the result of multiplex PCR were confirmed by QSA.
Rp- mutation, which occurred in 1–3 families in other populations; Rp-Com,- reported in other populations as common VHL mutation (in four or more families), Novel, mutation not detected in other populations44; de novo?, patient diagnosed without a family history of VHL (parents not tested); de novo, germline de novo mutations confirmed by analysis of parents' DNA.
