Somatic mutations of von Hippel Lindau (VHL) tumorsuppressor gene have been identified in kidney cancers from North America and Japan. We studied VHL gene mutation in 3 I kidney tumors from France. Of these tumors, 45% (14/31) displayed mutations, 60% of which occurred at AT base pairs. The frequenc
