Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5
The NM_003001.5(SDHC):c.160C>A(p.Pro54Thr) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000687 in 1,456,232 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. P54S) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome    Pathogenic:1 
The p.P54T variant (also known as c.160C>A), located in coding exon 3 of the SDHC gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 160. The proline at codon 54 is replaced by threonine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant was reported in individual(s) with features consistent with hereditary pheochromocytoma-paraganglioma (Ambry internal data; external communication). Based on internal structural analysis, this alteration destabilizes the SDHC-SDHB interface to a higher degree than a nearby pathogenic variant (Zhou Q et al. Protein Cell, 2011 Jul;2:531-42; Inaoka DK et al. Int J Mol Sci, 2015 Jul;16:15287-308). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the supporting evidence, this variant is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
Gastrointestinal stromal tumor;C1854336:Pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma syndrome 3    Pathogenic:1 
This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 54 of the SDHC protein (p.Pro54Thr). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with gastrointestinal stromal tumors and/or paragangliomas (external communication, internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 465962). 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. -

Not observed in large population cohorts (Lek 2016); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Observed in an individual with an SDH-deficient gastrointestinal stromal tumor (Boikos 2016); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 27011036) -
