a duplication of 11 bp in the promoter region (c.-65_-55dup11)
PatientID: 2
KindredID: 2
Case: M, 40Y0M, Ethnicity Unknown
DiseaseAssertion: assumed VHL
FamilyInfo: N/A - family history was unremarkable. The paper states however that this patient inherited the duplication from a nonsymptomatic parent. Two siblings of patient 2, aged over 40 and also carriers of the same variant, underwent a thorough clinical evaluation, which was judged as negative.

VariantEvidence: Quantitative Southern blot/real-time quantitative PCR analyses was normal in this patient. The 11 bp duplication is located within the promoter region of the VHL gene, in the vicinity of the main transcription initiation site, and within the binding site of several transcription factors. There is a possibility that the variant could alter transcription of the gene from the affected allele.
