Genes affected
UQCRB (HGNC:12582): (ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase binding protein) This gene encodes a subunit of the ubiquinol-cytochrome c oxidoreductase complex, which consists of one mitochondrial-encoded and 10 nuclear-encoded subunits. The protein encoded by this gene binds ubiquinone and participates in the transfer of electrons when ubiquinone is bound. This protein plays an important role in hypoxia-induced angiogenesis through mitochondrial reactive oxygen species-mediated signaling. Mutations in this gene are associated with mitochondrial complex III deficiency. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. Related pseudogenes have been identified on chromosomes 1, 5 and X. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJul 15, 2014p.Trp108Cys (TGG>TGT): c.324 G>T in exon 4 of the UQCRB gene (NM_006294.3). The W108C likely pathogenic variant identified in the UQCRB gene has not been published as a mutation, nor has it been reported as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. The W108C variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is highly conserved across species. In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. Therefore, this variant is a strong candidate for a pathogenic mutation, however the possibility that it is a benign variant cannot be excluded. The variant is found in MITONUC-MITOP panel(s). -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 26, 2023This sequence change replaces tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 108 of the UQCRB protein (p.Trp108Cys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with UQCRB-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 215347). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Not Available"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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. -
