Genes affected
BBS5 (HGNC:970): (Bardet-Biedl syndrome 5) 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 required for the formation of cilia. Alternate transcriptional splice variants have been observed but have not been fully characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.06335282 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 7.7, offset of 4, new splice context is: gtctgtgtgcttttacgtAGact. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 2-169487068-G-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-169487068-G-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 569727.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr2-169487068-G-C is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].

Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesMay 22, 2024The BBS5 c.143-1G>C variant is predicted to disrupt the AG splice acceptor site and interfere with normal splicing. This variant has been reported in the homozygous state as well in the heterozygous state with a second pathogenic variant in individuals with inherited retinal disease and Bardet-Biedl syndrome (Torrefranca et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32811249; Table 3 in Villanueva-Mendoza et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 34828430; Supp. Table 4 in Perea-Romero. 2022. PubMed ID: 35835773; Villafuerte-de la Cruz et al. 2024. Pubmed ID: 38347443). This variant is reported in 0.029% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice acceptor site in BBS5 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -

Bardet-Biedl syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpSep 13, 2023This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 2 of the BBS5 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in BBS5 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15137946, 16877420, 26325687, 27708425, 28041643, 29806606). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.03%). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 569727). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Bardet-Biedl syndrome (Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
