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 SDHB c.289A>T; p.Ile97Phe variant (rs1553177769; ClinVar ID: 480784) is reported in the literature in several individuals affected with paraganglioma and/or pheochromocytoma (Chen 2021, Garrett 2022). This variant is absent from the Genome Aggregation Database (v2.1.1), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. Computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.873). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be likely pathogenic. References: Chen WM et al.

This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 97 of the SDHB protein (p.Ile97Phe). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with paraganglioma or pheochromocytoma (PMID: 34906457; external communication, internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 480784). 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. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

The p.I97F variant (also known as c.289A>T), located in coding exon 4 of the SDHB gene, results from an A to T substitution at nucleotide position 289. The isoleucine at codon 97 is replaced by phenylalanine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant has been detected in multiple unrelated individuals with paraganglioma (Ambry internal data). This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -

All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health
Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This missense variant replaces isoleucine with phenylalanine at codon 97 of the SDHB protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with paraganglioma (PMID: 33564614). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
