Proteostasis Modulators Prolong Missense VHL Protein Activity and Halt Tumor Progression

Although missense mutations of the von Hippel-Lindau disease (VHL) gene are the most common germline mutation underlying this heritable cancer syndrome, the mechanism of tumorigenesis is unknown. We found a quantitative reduction of missense mutant VHL protein (pVHL) in tumors associated with physio...
