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]

DNA sequence analysis of the SDHA gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.955A>C, in exon 8 that results in an amino acid change, p.Ile319Leu. This sequence change has previously been described in a patient with pheochromocytoma in a heterozygous state; this patient also carried a pathogenic missense change in the RET gene (PMID: 30877234). This sequence change has been described in the gnomAD database with a population frequency of 0.029% in non-Finnish European population (dbSNP rs377509915). The p.Ile319Leu change affects a highly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the SDHA protein that is known to be functional. In-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL) provide contradictory results for the p.Ile319Leu substitution. Due to these contrasting evidences and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Ile319Leu change remains unknown at this time. -

The p.I319L variant (also known as c.955A>C), located in coding exon 8 of the SDHA gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 955. The isoleucine at codon 319 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant was reported in a female patient diagnosed at age 18 with a benign pheochromocytoma; however, this individual was also heterozygous for a well-established RET mutation, p.C634R (Ben Aim L et al. J Med Genet, 2019 08;56:513-520). This alteration was also detected in 1/224 unrelated Brazilian individuals diagnosed with breast cancer (Sandoval RL et al. PLoS One, 2021 Feb;16:e0247363). This amino acid position is highly 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. -

This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 319 of the SDHA protein (p.Ile319Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs377509915, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of SDHA-related conditions (PMID: 33606809; internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 412364). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt SDHA protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
