Genes affected
 MT4  (HGNC:18705):  (metallothionein 4) Predicted to enable metal ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in cellular response to metal ion; cellular zinc ion homeostasis; and detoxification of copper ion. Predicted to act upstream of or within cellular metal ion homeostasis. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022] 
 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]
