Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories | Aug 02, 2023 | The SDHB c.725G>A; p.Arg242His variant (rs74315368) is reported in the literature in individuals affected with paraganglioma or pheochromocytoma (Luiz 2013, Neumann 2002, Neumann 2009, Niemeijer 2017, Young 2002). In at least one family, this variant was observed to segregate with disease (Young 2002). This variant is also reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 12781). It is only found on three alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. Computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.944). Consistent with these predictions, functional assays have observed that this variant exhibits decreased SDH/complex II activity (Kim 2015, Nesti 2015) and increased ubiquitination (Yang 2012). Additionally, other amino acid substitutions at this codon (p.Arg242Cys, p.Arg242Ser) have been reported in individuals with paraganglioma and are considered pathogenic (Badenhop 2004, Neumann 2009). Based on available information, the p.Arg242His variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Badenhop RF et al.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health | Aug 08, 2024 | The c.725G>A variant in the SDHB gene is located on the exon 7 and is predicted to replace arginine with histidine at codon 242 (p.Arg242His). The variant has been reported in multiple unrelated individuals with paraganglioma/pheochromocytoma/renal cell carcinoma (PMID: 12000816, 32661476, 33748650, 36597280, 29925701, 33362715, 34906457). Alternative variants disrupting the same amino acid (p.Arg242Ser, p.Arg242Cys) have been interpreted as pathogenic (ClinVar ID: 239443, 186827). In vitro SDH activity assay and co-immunoprecipitation experiment in mammalian cells demonstrated impaired function and abolished interaction with the SDH aseembly factor SDHAF3 (PMID: 25972245, 28738844). The variant is reported in ClinVar (ID: 12781). The variant is rare in general population according to gnomAD (18/1613846 chromosomes, 0.001%) . Computational prediction algorithms suggest a deleterious impact for this variant (REVEL score 0.94). Therefore, the c.725G>A (p.Arg242His) variant in the SDHB gene is classified as pathogenic. - |
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Genetics and Molecular Pathology, SA Pathology | Nov 10, 2020 | The SDHB c.725G>A variant is a single nucleotide substitution from a guanine to an adenonine at position 725 which is predicted to change the arginine at position 242 in the protein to histidine. The variant has been reported multiple times in the literature in association with disease (PMID: 12000816, 12213855, 15328326, 28490599) (PS1). Functional studies demonstrate that the variant has a detrimental effect on protein function (PMID: 25972245, 22835832) (PS3). The variant is listed in dbSNP (rs74315368) and is rare in population databases (gnomAD 3 het/251,440 total, 0 hom). The variant is described in ClinVar as pathogenic (ClinVar ID: 27820) and HGMD (2020.3) as disease causing (PP5). Computational predictions support a deleterious effect on the gene or gene product. - |

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Nov 08, 2022 | The p.R242H pathogenic mutation (also known as c.725G>A), located in coding exon 7 of the SDHB gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 725. The arginine at codon 242 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. The p.R242H mutation has been well described in published literature. It has been identified in numerous individuals with tumors across the paraganglioma-pheochromocytoma (PGL-PCC) syndrome spectrum, including thoracic, pelvic, and head and neck PGL, adrenal PCC, and renal cell carcinoma (Neumann HP et al. JAMA. 2004 Aug;292:943-51; Ghayee HK et al. Endocr. Relat. Cancer. 2009 Mar;16:291-9; Luiz HV et al. Pediatrics. 2013 Dec;32:e1709-14; Persu A et al. J. Hypertens. 2008 Jul;26:1395-401; Burnichon N et al. J. Clin. Endocrinol. Metab. 2009 Aug;94:2817-27; Merlo A et al. J. Clin. Endocrinol. Metab 2013 Oct;98:E1661-6; Rattenberry E et al. J. Clin. Endocrinol. Metab. 2013 Jul;98:E1248-56; van Hulsteijn LT et al. Fam. Cancer. 2014 Dec;13:651-7; Janssen I et al. Clin. Cancer Res. 2015 Sep;21:3888-95; Gill AJ et al. Am. J. Surg. Pathol. 2014 Dec;38:1588-602). In one study, mutant yeast strains with this mutation showed a significant defect and structural analysis suggested that this mutation alters the conformation of the protein, causing a decrease in the positive surface extent of the mutant protein (Nesti C et al. Hum. Mol. Genet. 2015 Jun;24:3248-56). Additionally, structural modeling of this mutation has predicted disruption of the electron path and impaired functional activity (Kim E et al. Endocr. Relat. Cancer. 2015 Jun;22:387-97). Of note, two different alterations at the same codon, p.R242C and p.R242S, have also been reported in patients with head/neck PGLs and PCCs (Panizza E et al. Hum. Mol. Genet. 2013 Feb;22:804-15; Neumann HP et al. Cancer Res. 2009 Apr;69:3650-6; Lefebvre S et al. Horm. Metab. Res. 2012 May;44:334-8; Badenhop RF et al. J. Med. Genet. 2004 Jul;41:e99). Based on the available evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. - |

Pheochromocytoma;C0238198:Gastrointestinal stromal tumor;C1861848:Paragangliomas 4 Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp | Jan 21, 2024 | This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 242 of the SDHB protein (p.Arg242His). This variant is present in population databases (rs74315368, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with sporadic and familial hereditary paragangliomas and/or pheochromocytomas (PMID: 12000816, 12213855, 17102084, 20208144, 21173220, 22270996, 24276837, 25736212). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 12781). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt SDHB protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SDHB function (PMID: 22835832, 25736212, 25972245). This variant disrupts the p.Arg242 amino acid residue in SDHB. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. - |
