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]

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpAug 15, 2023Variant summary: SDHB c.440A>G (p.Tyr147Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Succinate dehydogenase/fumarate reductase N-terminal domain (IPR025192) of 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 0.0001 in 251178 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 473 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in SDHB causing Hereditary Paraganglioma-Pheochromocytoma Syndrome phenotype (2.2e-07), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. c.440A>G has been reported in the literature in cohorts of individuals affected with Pheochromocytoma and as a VUS in settings of multigene panel testing among individuals with Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs) (example, Maignan_2017, Pipitprapat_2021) and one report published a REVEL score of 0.87 for this variant (Garrett_2022). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Paraganglioma-Pheochromocytoma Syndrome. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 28229225, 34309460, 34906457). Five submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as VUS (n=4) or likely benign (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign. -
Pheochromocytoma Uncertain:1

Pheochromocytoma;C0238198:Gastrointestinal stromal tumor;C1861848:Paragangliomas 4 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 16, 2024This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 147 of the SDHB protein (p.Tyr147Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs774568101, gnomAD 0.04%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of SDHB-related conditions (PMID: 28229225, 34309460; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 412466). 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: 28229225). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Hereditary pheochromocytoma-paraganglioma Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthNov 20, 2023This missense variant replaces tyrosine with cysteine at codon 147 of the SDHB protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). An experimental functional study have shown that this variant results in decreased SDHB mitochondrial membrane localization, and reduced SDH activity (PMID: 28229225). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with paraganglioma (PGL) or pheochromocytoma (PCC) in the literature (PMID: 28229225, 34309460, 34906457). This variant has been identified in 26/251178 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsSep 21, 2021This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
