Routine diagnostic testing by Sanger sequencing and multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) for a germline VHL variant showed no abnormality, and after informed written consent, the proband and her parent
[Paragraph-level] PMCID: PMC9402235 Section: RESULTS PassageIndex: 5
Evidence Type(s): Diagnostic, Functional
Justification: Diagnostic: The passage discusses the identification of a de novo missense variant in ELOC and its validation in the proband, indicating its potential role in defining or confirming a genetic condition. Functional: The passage describes the critical role of the Tyr79 residue in forming a hydrogen bond within the pVHL alpha domain, suggesting that the variant alters molecular function.
