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]

The c.286G>A (p.Gly96Ser) variant in the SDHB gene is located on the exon 3 and is predicted to replace glycine with serine at codon 96 (p.Gly96Ser). The variant has been reported in multiple individuals with paragangliomas/pheochromocytoma (PMID: 34906457, 19802898, 24436918, 28374168) and 2 unrelated individuals with renal cancer (PMID: 23083876, 28973655). The variant is predicted to cause splicing donor loss (SpliceAI delta score: 0.77), resulting in alternative splicing and disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants of SDHB are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16258955, 19389109, 28490599). The variant is reported in ClinVar (ID: 142111). The variant is rare in the general population according to gnomAD (3/251244). Computational prediction algorithms suggest a deleterious impact for this variant (REVEL score 0.967). Therefore, the c.286G>A (p.Gly96Ser) variant of SDHB has been classified as likely pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 96 of the SDHB protein (p.Gly96Ser). This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 3, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. This variant is present in population databases (rs587782243, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of hereditary paraganglioma and/or pheochromocytoma syndrome (PMID: 2308387, 19802898, 24436918, 28374168, 29386252; external communications, internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 142111). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Studies have shown that this missense change is associated with inconclusive levels of altered splicing (internal data). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The p.G96S pathogenic mutation (also known as c.286G>A), located in coding exon 3 of the SDHB gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 286. This change occurs in the last base pair of coding exon 3, which makes it likely to have some effect on normal mRNA splicing. In addition to potential splicing impact, this alteration changes the glycine at codon 96 to serine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant has been identified in multiple affected individuals with SDHB-associated tumors (Jochmanova I et al. J. Cancer Res. Clin. Oncol., 2017 Aug;143:1421-1435; Sridhara SK et al. J Neurol Surg B Skull Base, 2013 Aug;74:236-40; Ricketts CJ et al. J Urol. 2012 Dec;188(6):2063-71; Ricketts CJ et al. Hum Mutat. 2010 Jan;31(1):41-51; Ambry internal data). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site; however, direct evidence is insufficient at this time (Ambry internal data). In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
