Genes affected
SDHB (HGNC:10681): (succinate dehydrogenase complex iron sulfur subunit B) This tumor suppressor gene encodes the iron-sulfur protein subunit of the succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) enzyme complex which plays a critical role in mitochondria. The SDH enzyme complex is composed of four nuclear-encoded subunits. This enzyme complex converts succinate to fumarate which releases electrons as part of the citric acid cycle, and the enzyme complex additionally provides an attachment site for released electrons to be transferred to the oxidative phosphorylation pathway. The SDH enzyme complex plays a role in oxygen-related gene regulation through its conversion of succinate, which is an oxygen sensor that stabilizes the hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF1) transcription factor. Sporadic and familial mutations in this gene result in paragangliomas, pheochromocytoma, and gastrointestinal stromal tumors, supporting a link between mitochondrial dysfunction and tumorigenesis. Mutations in this gene are also implicated in nuclear type 4 mitochondrial complex II deficiency. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2022]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 16, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu9*) in the SDHB gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SDHB are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19454582, 19802898). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Paraganglioma-pheochromocytoma syndrome (PMID: 28374168). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 187527). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMay 22, 2023The p.L9* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.26T>A), located in coding exon 1 of the SDHB gene, results from a T to A substitution at nucleotide position 26. This changes the amino acid from a leucine to a stop codon within coding exon 1. This mutation has been reported in an individual with metastatic pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs) (Sue et al. Eur. J. Endocrinol. 2014 Nov;86(5):482-486). 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. -
