Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.1594C>T (p.R532W) alteration is located in exon 15 (coding exon 15) of the BBS1 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1594, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 532 to be replaced by a tryptophan (W). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Jan 15, 2024
PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The BBS1 c.1594C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg532Trp. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.012% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Bardet-Biedl syndrome Uncertain:1
May 30, 2022
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 532 of the BBS1 protein (p.Arg532Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs770105141, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BBS1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 393063). 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 (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
