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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxApr 04, 2023Observed in the heterozygous state in an individual with epilepsy, although a second variant in SDHA was not identified (Hesse et al., 2018); Frameshift variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 28152038, 29778030, 31589614, 29177515) -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoAug 28, 2022This frameshift variant alters the translational reading frame of the SDHA mRNA and causes the premature termination of SDHA protein synthesis. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00017 (6/35438 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is consistent with pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in an individual with paragangliomas (PMID: 29177515 (2018)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 06, 2021The c.667delG pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 6 of the SDHA gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 667, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.D223Ifs*3). This variant has been reported in a Dutch patient diagnosed with bilateral glomus vagal tumors and a glomus carotid body tumor at age 49 (van der Tuin K et al. J Clin Endocrinol Metab, 2018 02;103:438-445). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, 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. -
Paragangliomas 5;C5700310:Mitochondrial complex II deficiency, nuclear type 1 Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 25, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asp223Ilefs*3) 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 present in population databases (rs779126007, gnomAD 0.02%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with a carotid body tumor and bilateral glomus vagal tumors (PMID: 29177515). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 141876). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
