Genes affected

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]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: This position, referring to a specific DNA site, is a probable branch point but is likely benign (scored 3 / 10, using the threshold of <=3). The score ranges from 0 to 10, with values ≤3 considered benign and >5 classified as pathogenic. Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.81).
