Von Hippel-Lindau tumor suppressor, E3 ubiquitin protein ligase (VHL) is a gene that encodes a member of a protein complex with ubiquitin ligase activity. The protein functions in ubiquitination and degradation of a transcription factor that regulates gene expression. Missense mutations, nonsense mutations, silent mutations, frameshift deletions and insertions, and in-frame deletions and insertions are observed in cancers such as intestinal cancer, kidney cancer, and cancer of the paratesticular tissues.
