Brief Summary: The von Hippel Lindau VHL gene has recently been identified as the genetic defect resulting in a syndrome of multiple neoplasias Patients with VHL disease develop retinal angiomata renal cysts andor carcinomas CNS hemangioblastomas as well as pancreatic cysts and pheochromocytomas Investigators have shown the gene to be a tumor suppressor type proto-oncogene located at chromosomal locus 3p26 The gene includes three exons whose gene product targets a cellular transcription factor Elongin SIII Binding of the VHL proteins to two subunits of this elongation factor inhibits transcription and may play a crucial role in the clinical development of the von Hippel Lindau phenotype
