Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the BBS1 gene is commonly pathogenic or not.

In the table, we include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, Mane Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equals 1. Click the count to view the source variants.

Warning: slight differences between displayed counts and the number of variants in ClinVar may occur, primarily due to (1) the application of a different transcript and/or consequence by our variant effect predictor or (2) differences in clinical significance: we classify Benign/Likely benign variants as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic variants as Likely pathogenic.

• Function: FUNCTION: The BBSome complex is thought to function as a coat complex required for sorting of specific membrane proteins to the primary cilia. The BBSome complex is required for ciliogenesis but is dispensable for centriolar satellite function. This ciliogenic function is mediated in part by the Rab8 GDP/GTP exchange factor, which localizes to the basal body and contacts the BBSome. Rab8(GTP) enters the primary cilium and promotes extension of the ciliary membrane. Firstly the BBSome associates with the ciliary membrane and binds to RAB3IP/Rabin8, the guanosyl exchange factor (GEF) for Rab8 and then the Rab8-GTP localizes to the cilium and promotes docking and fusion of carrier vesicles to the base of the ciliary membrane. The BBSome complex, together with the LTZL1, controls SMO ciliary trafficking and contributes to the sonic hedgehog (SHH) pathway regulation. Required for proper BBSome complex assembly and its ciliary localization (PubMed:17574030, PubMed:22072986). Plays a role in olfactory cilium biogenesis/maintenance and trafficking (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q3V3N7, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17574030, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22072986}.
• Disease: DISEASE: Bardet-Biedl syndrome 1 (BBS1) [MIM:209900]: A syndrome characterized by usually severe pigmentary retinopathy, early- onset obesity, polydactyly, hypogenitalism, renal malformation and mental retardation. Secondary features include diabetes mellitus, hypertension and congenital heart disease. Bardet-Biedl syndrome inheritance is autosomal recessive, but three mutated alleles (two at one locus, and a third at a second locus) may be required for clinical manifestation of some forms of the disease. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12118255, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12524598, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12567324, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12677556, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12920096, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15770229, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21052717, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21344540}.
