Ambry Genetics | RCV000219011 | SCV000273688 | pathogenic | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2019-04-04 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.Q149* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.445C>T), located in coding exon 5 of the SDHB gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 445. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 5. This mutation has been reported in cohorts of patients with features of hereditary paraganglioma-pheocromocytoma syndrome (Jochmanova I et al. J. Cancer Res. Clin. Oncol. 2017 Aug;143:1421-1435; Andrews KA et al. J. Med. Genet. 2018 Jun;55:384-394). 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. |

RCV001857761 | SCV002228791 | pathogenic | Gastrointestinal stromal tumor; Paragangliomas 4; Pheochromocytoma | 2024-08-11 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln149*) 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 a personal and/or family history of paraganglioma and/or pheochromocytoma (PMID: 28374168, 29386252). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 230224). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. |
