Gastrointestinal stromal tumor;C1854336:Paragangliomas 3 Pathogenic:1
This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 2 of the SDHC gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and likely results in a shortened protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SDHC-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 185473). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in skipping of exon 3, but is expected to preserve the integrity of the reading-frame (Invitae). This variant disrupts a region of the SDHC protein in which other variant(s) (p.Arg50) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 19351833, 23666964, 24102379). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
The c.78-1G>A intronic variant results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide upstream from coding exon 3 of the SDHC gene. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. This alteration has been observed in at least one individual who has a personal or family history that is consistent with SDHC-associated disease (Ambry internal data). RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Ambry internal data). In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice acceptor site. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as likely pathogenic. -
