Genes affected
TTC8 (HGNC:20087): (tetratricopeptide repeat domain 8) This gene encodes a protein that has been directly linked to Bardet-Biedl syndrome. The primary features of this syndrome include retinal dystrophy, obesity, polydactyly, renal abnormalities and learning disabilities. Experimentation in non-human eukaryotes suggests that this gene is expressed in ciliated cells and that it is involved in the formation of cilia. A mutation in this gene has also been implicated in nonsyndromic retinitis pigmentosa. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2014]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points.

PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.8).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.0000263 (4/152260) while in subpopulation SAS AF= 0.000829 (4/4826). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000283. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 3 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position pass quality control queck. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting

Bardet-Biedl syndrome 8 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 13, 2018This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -
