Genes affected

SDHC (HGNC:10682): (succinate dehydrogenase complex subunit C) This gene encodes one of four nuclear-encoded subunits that comprise succinate dehydrogenase, also known as mitochondrial complex II, a key enzyme complex of the tricarboxylic acid cycle and aerobic respiratory chains of mitochondria. The encoded protein is one of two integral membrane proteins that anchor other subunits of the complex, which form the catalytic core, to the inner mitochondrial membrane. There are several related pseudogenes for this gene on different chromosomes. Mutations in this gene have been associated with paragangliomas. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing variant, NOT destroyed by nmd, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.10980392 fraction of the gene. No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal is inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 1-161323610-GCAGAC-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-161323610-GCAGAC-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 517289.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

The c.21-3_22del variant in SDHC has not been previously reported in individuals with SDHC-related cancers (hereditary paraganglioma-pheochromocytoma syndrome) and was absent from large population studies. This variant is a deletion that sp ans the invariant region (+/- 1,2) of the splice consensus sequence and is predi cted to cause altered splicing leading to an abnormal or absent protein. A signi ficant fraction of pathogenic SDHC variants are loss of function and splice vari ants, suggesting that the c.21-3_22del variant is disease causing. In summary, a lthough additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical signific ance, the c.21-3_22del variant is likely pathogenic. -
