Genes affected

SDHA (HGNC:10680): (succinate dehydrogenase complex flavoprotein subunit A) This gene encodes a major catalytic subunit of succinate-ubiquinone oxidoreductase, a complex of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. The complex is composed of four nuclear-encoded subunits and is localized in the mitochondrial inner membrane. Mutations in this gene have been associated with a form of mitochondrial respiratory chain deficiency known as Leigh Syndrome. A pseudogene has been identified on chromosome 3q29. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2014]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	Jun 15, 2022	The SDHA c.1A>G (p.Met1?) variant alters the initiator methionine amino acid and the resultant protein is described as p.Met1? to denote that whether the loss of the methionine at codon 1 prevents all protein translation or causes abnormal protein formation from an alternate methionine is unknown. This variant has been reported in a heterozygous state in an individual with pheochromocytoma (Davidoff et al. 2021) as well as individuals with bladder cancer (Dubart Gault et al. 2018; Carlo et al. 2020) and melanoma (Huang et al. 2018; Aoude et al. 2020). It has also been identified as a somatic variant in a tumor sample from an individual with a carotid paraganglioma (Snezhkina et al. 2020). In addition, the c.1A>G variant was identified in at least two individuals with an autosomal recessive mitochondrial disorder (Baskovich et al. 2016; Han et al. 2019; Yang et al. 2022). Different nucleotide changes that also disrupt the initiation codon, c.1A>C, c.1A>T, c.2T>C, c.2T>G, and c.3G>C, have been reported in individuals with adrenal paraganglioma, carotid paraganglioma, gastrointestinal stromal tumors, or autosomal recessive Leigh syndrome (Parfait et al. 2000; Jiang et al. 2015; Bausch et al. 2017; Carrera et al. 2019). The c.1A>G variant is reported in the Genome Aggregation Database in three alleles at a frequency of 0.000044 in the European (non-Finnish) population (version 3.1.2). Mutagenesis studies using breast cancer cell lines expressing c.1A>G variant and wild-type cDNA showed decreased protein levels and increased accumulation of metabolites in the presence of the variant. The succinate to fumarate ratio was not significantly different from wild-type in the cell lines expressing the variant (Dubart Gault et al. 2018), but a sample from the resected pheochromocytoma from the individual with a germline c.1A>G variant did show an increased succinate to fumarate ratio as well as absent immunohistochemical staining for succinate dehydrogenase subunits A and B (Davidoff et al. 2021). Based on the available evidence, the c.1A>G (p.Met1?) variant is classified as likely pathogenic for hereditary paraganglioma-pheochromocytoma syndrome. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Department of Pediatrics, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center	Jun 06, 2018	This mutation was detected in a patient with bladder cancer in our cohort. While this genomic alteration meets ACMG criteria as pathogenic, additional features suggest this variant was driving the bladder cancer in the patient it was detected are lacking. A second hit was not observed in SDHA in the tumor and SDHA/B staining were retained in the tumor sample. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Myriad Genetics, Inc.	Feb 06, 2024	This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant is located within the gene translation start codon (p.Met1?) and is predicted to result in abnormal protein translation. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with clinical features of gene-specific disease [PMID: 35014173, 28384794, 10746566, 26722403, 32971818]. -

This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the SDHA mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 114. This variant is present in population databases (rs1061517, gnomAD 0.02%). Disruption of the initiator codon has been observed in individuals with autosomal dominant gastrointestinal stromal tumor syndrome, autosomal dominant paraganglioma-pheochromocytoma syndrome (PMID: 26722403, 28384794, 29625052, 30068732), and/or autosomal recessive mitochondrial complex II deficiency (PMID: 10746566, 26334176). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 239661). This variant disrupts the N-terminal part of the SDHA protein, which is important for FAD binding (PMID: 25488574, 15989954, 21858060). While functional studies have not been performed to directly test the effect of this variant on SDHA protein function, this suggests that disruption of this region of the protein is causative of disease. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The p.M1? pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1A>G), located in coding exon 1 of the SDHA gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1. This alters the methionine residue at the initiation codon (ATG). There is an in-frame methionine 114 amino acids downstream from this initiation site which may result in an N-terminal truncation; however, direct evidence is unavailable. This alteration has been reported in at least one individual with Leigh syndrome (Baskovich B et al. Genet. Med. 2016 05;18:522-8). A different variant altering the methionine residue (c.1A>C) has been observed in an individual with Leigh syndrome who also carried a functionally deleterious SDHA alteration in trans, as well as in individuals with paraganglioma and gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) (Parfait B et al. Hum. Genet. 2000 Feb;106:236-43; Bausch B et al. JAMA Oncol. 2017 Sep;3(9):1204-1212; Carrera S et al. Hered. Cancer Clin. Pract. 2019 Aug;17:23). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, sequence variations that modify the initiation codon are expected to result in either loss of translation initiation, N-terminal truncation, or cause a shift in the mRNA reading frame. Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
