Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_031885.5(BBS2):c.1814C>G(p.Ser605*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000031 in 1,612,570 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 Likely pathogenic (★★). Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.
BBS2 (HGNC:967): (Bardet-Biedl syndrome 2) This gene is a member of the Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) gene family. Bardet-Biedl syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by severe pigmentary retinopathy, obesity, polydactyly, renal malformation and cognitive disability. The proteins encoded by BBS gene family members are structurally diverse and the similar phenotypes exhibited by mutations in BBS gene family members is likely due to their shared roles in cilia formation and function. Many BBS proteins localize to the basal bodies, ciliary axonemes, and pericentriolar regions of cells. BBS proteins may also be involved in intracellular trafficking via microtubule-related transport. The protein encoded by this gene forms a multiprotein BBSome complex with seven other BBS proteins.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2014]

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 553335). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with BBS2-related conditions (PMID: 25999675, 27659767). This variant is present in population databases (rs201063733, gnomAD 0.003%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser605*) in the BBS2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BBS2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11285252, 20177705, 24608809, 26518167). -
