Genes affected
SDHC (HGNC:10682): (succinate dehydrogenase complex subunit C) This gene encodes one of four nuclear-encoded subunits that comprise succinate dehydrogenase, also known as mitochondrial complex II, a key enzyme complex of the tricarboxylic acid cycle and aerobic respiratory chains of mitochondria. The encoded protein is one of two integral membrane proteins that anchor other subunits of the complex, which form the catalytic core, to the inner mitochondrial membrane. There are several related pseudogenes for this gene on different chromosomes. Mutations in this gene have been associated with paragangliomas. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 07, 2023The p.R72H pathogenic mutation (also known as c.215G>A), located in coding exon 4 of the SDHC gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 215. The arginine at codon 72 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. In a prospective series of individuals with paragangliomas, this alteration was identified in five individuals from three families (Burnichon N et al. J Clin Endocrinol Metab, 2009 Aug;94:2817-27). In addition, this alteration was identified in a French cohort of 1640 index patients with PGL/PCC (Buffet A et al. Horm Metab Res, 2012 May;44:359-66). This alteration has also been observed in an individual with urinary bladder paraganglioma whose tumor demonstrated loss of SDHB expression on IHC (Gupta S et al. Endocr Pathol, 2016 Sep;27:243-52). Based on internal structural analysis, p.R72H disrupts the catalytic function of succinate dehydrogenase through impacts on quinone binding and/or reduction to quinol (Sun F et al. Cell, 2005 Jul;121:1043-57; Lemarie A et al. Mitochondrion, 2009 Jul;9:254-60; Kluckova K et al. Cell Death Dis, 2015 May;6:e1749). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
Hereditary pheochromocytoma-paraganglioma Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthJun 26, 2023This missense variant replaces arginine with histidine at codon 72 of the SDHC protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant, however another variant at this residue (p.Arg72Cys) has been shown to have reduced electron transfer to ubiquinone and decreased succinate dehydrogenase activity (PMID: 25950479). This variant has been reported in multiple individuals affected with hereditary paranganglioma-pheochromocytoma syndrome (PMID: 19454582, 22517557, 27262318). Other variants at this protein residue (p.Arg72Cys, p.Arg72Leu) have been classified as pathogenic in ClinVar indicating that this residue is disease causing (ClinVar Variation IDs: 653952, 480787). This variant has been identified in 2/248980 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
Gastrointestinal stromal tumor;C1854336:Paragangliomas 3 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 07, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 72 of the SDHC protein (p.Arg72His). This variant is present in population databases (rs778582853, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with head and neck and/or thoracic-abdominal, pelvic, or urinary bladder paraganglioma (PMID: 19454582, 27262318). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 407044). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. 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. -
