The second column indicates the position of the nucleotide variants identified in the VHL gene regarding the current nomenclature (sequence encoded by the VHL E1-E2-E3). The third column indicates the impact either on the VHL protein (for variants located in E1, E2, or E3) or on the potential X1 protein, if encoded by E1-E1′ (for variants located in E1′). Normal values correspond to: Hb: M, 13 to 18 g/dL and F, 12 to 15 g/dL; Ht: M, 40% to 52% and F, 37% to 47%; red cells: M, 4.2 to 5.7 × 109/L and F, 4.2 to 5.2 × 109/L; EPO: 5 to 25 mU/mL.

EPO, erythropoietin; Hb, hemoglobin; Ht, hematocrit; N, normal value.

The nucleotide change was reported as rs982745672 with a global minor allele frequency that corresponds to T = 0.00007/2 (TOPMed).

The nucleotide change was reported as rs73024533 with a global minor allele frequency that corresponds to C = 0.0026/13 (1000 Genomes) and C = 0.0050/147 (TOPMed).
