Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 5 ACMG points: 5P and 0B. PM2PP3_ModeratePP5
The NM_024649.5(BBS1):c.670G>A(p.Glu224Lys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000062 in 1,613,674 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. E224E) has been classified as Likely benign.

Bardet-Biedl syndrome    Pathogenic:2 
This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 224 of the BBS1 protein (p.Glu224Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs193922709, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with BBS1-related conditions (PMID: 22773737; internal data). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 35753). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt BBS1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Variant summary: BBS1 c.670G>A (p.Glu224Lys) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the N-terminal domain (IPR032728) of the Bardet-Biedl syndrome 1 protein (BBS1) of the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251258 control chromosomes. c.670G>A has been observed in individuals with clinical features suggestive of Bardet-Biedl Syndrome, primarily retinitis pigmentosa (e.g. Redin_2012, Lam_2021, Karali_2022, Weisschuh_2024, internal data). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 36460718, 34906171, 22773737, 37734845). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 35753). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
