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]

Mar 10, 2020

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln169*) in the SDHB gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Loss-of-function variants in SDHB are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19454582, 19802898). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with SDHB-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 528736). -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1

Aug 23, 2024

Ambry Genetics

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.Q169* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.505C>T), located in coding exon 5 of the SDHB gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 505. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 5. This variant was reported in multiple individuals with features consistent with SDHB-related paraganglioma-pheochromocytoma syndrome (Buffet A et al. Horm Metab Res, 2012 May;44:359-66; Fuchs TL et al. Mod Pathol, 2022 Jun;35:836-849). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
