Genes affected
SDHAF2 (HGNC:26034): (succinate dehydrogenase complex assembly factor 2) This gene encodes a mitochondrial assembly factor needed for the flavination of a succinate dehydrogenase complex subunit (SDHA), which is required for activity of the succinate dehydrogenase complex. Mutations in this gene are associated with paraganglioma. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

Hereditary pheochromocytoma-paraganglioma Uncertain:2
Apr 25, 2024
All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces arginine with histidine at codon 166 of the SDHAF2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with SDHAF2-related disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 2/251452 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available". The histidine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 463831). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 166 of the SDHAF2 protein (p.Arg166His). This variant is present in population databases (rs768048172, gnomAD 0.003%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SDHAF2-related conditions. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:1
Jun 23, 2021
Ambry Genetics
Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
