Description

In 2 members of a family with pheochromocytoma (171300), Qin et al. (2010) identified a heterozygous 475C-T germline transition in the TMEM127 gene, resulting in a gln159-to-ter (Q159X) substitution. Analysis of tumor tissue showed loss of heterozygosity at the TMEM127 locus, consistent with a 2-hit model of tumor suppressor inactivation. Age at onset was 49 and 72 years, respectively, and both patients had bilateral tumors. TMEM127 expression was decreased, consistent with a loss of function.
