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:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.E640G variant (also known as c.1919A>G), located in coding exon 15 of the SDHA gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1919. The glutamic acid at codon 640 is replaced by glycine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was detected in a large Brazilian family with multiple cases of papillary thyroid cancer, but it did not segregate with disease (Accordi ED et al. Eur Thyroid J. 2016 Jul;5:94-9). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: SDHA c.1919A>G (p.Glu640Gly) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Fumarate reductase/succinate dehydrogenase flavoprotein-like, C-terminal domain (IPR015939) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00011 in 251168 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0016 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database exceeds the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in SDHA causing Neurodegeneration With Ataxia And Late-Onset Optic Atrophy phenotype. c.1919A>G has been reported in the literature in a family affected with Familiar Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma but did not segregate with disease (Accordi_2016). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Neurodegeneration With Ataxia And Late-Onset Optic Atrophy. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 27493882). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 252908). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
