Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 19 ACMG points: 19P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP3PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_003000.3(SDHB):c.502C>T(p.Gln168*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 468234). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with abdominal paraganglioma (PMID: 20505258). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln168*) in the SDHB gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SDHB are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19454582, 19802898). -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
The p.Q168* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.502C>T), located in coding exon 5 of the SDHB gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 502. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 5. This mutation has been reported in a 36 year old male of Japanese ancestry with a sporadic,extra-adrenal paraganglioma (Oishi et al. Endocr. J. 2010; 57 (8) 745-50). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, since premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation (ACMG Recommendations for Standards for Interpretation and Reporting of Sequence Variations. Revision 2007. Genet Med. 2008;10:294). -
