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]

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the SDHA mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 114. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of the initiator codon has been observed in individuals with complex II deficiency, gastrointestinal stromal tumor and renal cell carcinoma, and/or paraganglioma (PMID: 10746566, 26722403, 28384794). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 422382). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on gene product structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that disruption of the initiator codon affects SDHA function (PMID: 10746566). 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. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.M1? pathogenic mutation (also known as c.2T>G) is located in coding exon 1 of the SDHA gene and results from a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 2. This alters the methionine residue at the initiation codon (ATG). This alteration has been reported in an individual diagnosed with a carotid paraganglioma at age 27, who had no family history of paraganglioma or pheochromocytoma (Bausch B et al. JAMA Oncol, 2017 Sep;3:1204-1212). 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. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

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: 28384794, 10746566, 26722403, 32971818]. -
