Genes affected
SDHB (HGNC:10681): (succinate dehydrogenase complex iron sulfur subunit B) This tumor suppressor gene encodes the iron-sulfur protein subunit of the succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) enzyme complex which plays a critical role in mitochondria. The SDH enzyme complex is composed of four nuclear-encoded subunits. This enzyme complex converts succinate to fumarate which releases electrons as part of the citric acid cycle, and the enzyme complex additionally provides an attachment site for released electrons to be transferred to the oxidative phosphorylation pathway. The SDH enzyme complex plays a role in oxygen-related gene regulation through its conversion of succinate, which is an oxygen sensor that stabilizes the hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF1) transcription factor. Sporadic and familial mutations in this gene result in paragangliomas, pheochromocytoma, and gastrointestinal stromal tumors, supporting a link between mitochondrial dysfunction and tumorigenesis. Mutations in this gene are also implicated in nuclear type 4 mitochondrial complex II deficiency. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2022]

Variant summary: SDHB c.689G>A (p.Arg230His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251416 control chromosomes. c.689G>A continues to be widely reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hereditary Paraganglioma-Pheochromocytoma Syndrome (example, Amar_2005, Brouwers_2006, Amar_2007, Trimmers_2007, Meyer-Rochow_2009, Persu_2008). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. No experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been ascertained. Seven clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

The p.R230H pathogenic mutation (also known as c.689G>A), located in coding exon 7 of the SDHB gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 689. The arginine at codon 230 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. In one study, this mutation was detected in a Mexican kindred in two relatives with head and neck paragangliomas whose tumors demonstrated loss of SDHB protein on immunohistochemistry (Cerecer-Gil et al. Clin Cancer Res 2010 Aug 15; 16(16):4148-54). An individual diagnosed with an autosomal recessive mitochondrial disease and leukoencephalopathy was found to be a compound heterozygote for SDHB p.D48V (c.143A>T) and SDHB p.R230H (c.689G>A) (Grønborg S et al. JIMD Rep. 2017 Sep;33:69-77). Furthermore, p.R230H has been reported in numerous additional kindreds with hereditary paraganglioma-pheochromocytoma, sporadic paraganglioma-pheochromocytoma, and familial renal cell carcinoma (Amar et al. J Clin Oncol. 2005 Dec1; 23(34):8812-8; Said-Al-Naief et al. Head Neck Pathol. 2008 Dec;2(4): 272-8; Ricketts CJ et al. J Urol. 2012; 188:2063-71; Cascón A et al. J Clin Endocrinol Metab. 2009; 94:1701-5; Burnichon N et al. J Clin Endocrinol Metab. 2009; 94:2817-27; Ma X et al. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2020 Dec;11:574662). Two other pathogenic mutations (p.R230C and p.R230L) have also been described at this same codon. Based on available evidence, p.R230H is classified as a pathogenic mutation. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 230 of the SDHB protein (p.Arg230His). This variant is present in population databases (rs587782604, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with pheochromocytomas, paragangliomas and renal cell carcinomas (PMID: 17200167, 20614293, 23083876, 24509376, 25695889, 26259135, 27539324; 20592014andinternal datadatabase). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 142637). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt SDHB protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. This variant disrupts the p.Arg230 amino acid residue in SDHB. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 14500403, 16314641, 18382370, 19351833, 24939699, 27539324; internal data). 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. -
