Genes affected

SDHA (HGNC:10680): (succinate dehydrogenase complex flavoprotein subunit A) This gene encodes a major catalytic subunit of succinate-ubiquinone oxidoreductase, a complex of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. The complex is composed of four nuclear-encoded subunits and is localized in the mitochondrial inner membrane. Mutations in this gene have been associated with a form of mitochondrial respiratory chain deficiency known as Leigh Syndrome. A pseudogene has been identified on chromosome 3q29. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2014]

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ile539Asnfs*64) in the SDHA gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SDHA are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 22974104, 24781757). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SDHA-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 412366). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1

Nov 05, 2024

Ambry Genetics

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.1615dupA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 12 of the SDHA gene, results from a duplication of A at nucleotide position 1615, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.I539Nfs*64). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
