Genes affected
BBS12 (HGNC:26648): (Bardet-Biedl syndrome 12) The protein encoded by this gene is part of a complex that is involved in membrane trafficking. The encoded protein is a molecular chaperone that aids in protein folding upon ATP hydrolysis. This protein also plays a role in adipocyte differentiation. Defects in this gene are a cause of Bardet-Biedl syndrome type 12. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

Variant summary: BBS12 c.1115_1116delTT (p.Phe372X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein, however, nonsense mediated decay is not expected to occur. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.4e-05 in 251276 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in BBS12 causing Bardet-Biedl Syndrome (8.4e-05 vs 0.00076), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1115_1116delTT has been reported in the literature in multiple homozygous and compound heterozygous individuals affected with Bardet-Biedl Syndrome (e.g. Stoetzel_2007, Alvarez-Satta_2014). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 24611592, 17160889). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1151). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Phe372*) in the BBS12 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 339 amino acid(s) of the BBS12 protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs753781824, gnomAD 0.02%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with Bardet-Biedl syndrome (PMID: 17160889, 20827784, 24611592). This variant is also known as 1114delTT. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1151). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The BBS12 c.1115_1116delTT variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Phe372*). This variant, also defined as c.1114_1115del (p.Phe372fs*373), has been reported in the homozygous or compound heterozgyous states in individuals with Bardet-Biedl syndrome or retinitis pigmentosa (see, for example, Stoetzel et al. 2007. PubMed ID: 17160889; Hariri et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 31047384). This variant is reported in 0.017% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Nonsense variants in BBS12 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
