Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the SDHD gene is commonly pathogenic or not.

In the table, we include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, Mane Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equals 1. Click the count to view the source variants.

Warning: slight differences between displayed counts and the number of variants in ClinVar may occur, primarily due to (1) the application of a different transcript and/or consequence by our variant effect predictor or (2) differences in clinical significance: we classify Benign/Likely benign variants as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic variants as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Membrane-anchoring subunit of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) that is involved in complex II of the mitochondrial electron transport chain and is responsible for transferring electrons from succinate to ubiquinone (coenzyme Q). {ECO:0000250}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Paragangliomas 1 (PGL1) [MIM:168000]: A neural crest tumor usually derived from the chromoreceptor tissue of a paraganglion. PGL1 is a rare autosomal dominant disorder which is characterized by the development of mostly benign, highly vascular, slowly growing tumors in the head and neck. In the head and neck region, the carotid body is the largest of all paraganglia and is also the most common site of the tumors. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10657297, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11343322, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11391796, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11391798, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15328326}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Pheochromocytoma (PCC) [MIM:171300]: A catecholamine- producing tumor of chromaffin tissue of the adrenal medulla or sympathetic paraganglia. The cardinal symptom, reflecting the increased secretion of epinephrine and norepinephrine, is hypertension, which may be persistent or intermittent. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11156372, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12000816, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15328326}. Note=Disease susceptibility is associated with variations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Paraganglioma and gastric stromal sarcoma (PGGSS) [MIM:606864]: Gastrointestinal stromal tumors may be sporadic or inherited in an autosomal dominant manner, alone or as a component of a syndrome associated with other tumors, such as in the context of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). Patients have both gastrointestinal stromal tumors and paragangliomas. Susceptibility to the tumors was inherited in an apparently autosomal dominant manner, with incomplete penetrance. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17804857}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Mitochondrial complex II deficiency (MT-C2D) [MIM:252011]: A disorder of the mitochondrial respiratory chain with heterogeneous clinical manifestations. Clinical features include psychomotor regression in infants, poor growth with lack of speech development, severe spastic quadriplegia, dystonia, progressive leukoencephalopathy, muscle weakness, exercise intolerance, cardiomyopathy. Some patients manifest Leigh syndrome or Kearns-Sayre syndrome. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:24367056, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26008905}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
