Genes affected
BBS7 (HGNC:18758): (Bardet-Biedl syndrome 7) This gene encodes one of eight proteins that form the BBSome complex containing BBS1, BBS2, BBS4, BBS5, BBS7, BBS8, BBS9 and BBIP10. The BBSome complex is believed to recruit Rab8(GTP) to the primary cilium and promote ciliogenesis. The BBSome complex assembly is mediated by a complex composed of three chaperonin-like BBS proteins (BBS6, BBS10, and BBS12) and CCT/TRiC family chaperonins. Mutations in this gene are implicated in Bardet-Biedl syndrome, a genetic disorder whose symptoms include obesity, retinal degeneration, polydactyly and nephropathy; however, mutations in this gene and the BBS8 gene are thought to play a minor role and mutations in chaperonin-like BBS genes are found to be a major contributor to disease development in a multiethnic Bardet-Biedl syndrome patient population. Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2014]

Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The BBS7 c.683G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg228His. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.0062% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 228 of the BBS7 protein (p.Arg228His). This variant is present in population databases (rs369866009, gnomAD 0.007%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BBS7-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 531821). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The histidine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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. -
