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]

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: research

The heterozygous p.Tyr24Ter variant was identified by our study in the compound heterozygous state, with a VUS, in one individual with Bardet-Biedl syndrome. This variant has been identified in <0.01% (12/125738) of European (Non-Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs121908175). Loss of function of the BBS2 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive Bardet-Biedl syndrome 2, and this is a loss of function variant. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its pathogenicity, this variant is likely pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: The BBS2 c.72C>G (p.Tyr24X) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent BBS2 protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. One in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant. This variant was found in 7/116822 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000599, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic BBS2 variant (0.0008452). This variant has been reported in multiple BBS patients in homozygous or compound heterozygous state. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr24*) in the BBS2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BBS2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11285252, 20177705, 24608809, 26518167). This variant is present in population databases (rs121908175, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Bardet-Biedl syndrome (PMID: 11567139, 21344540). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 4570). 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. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method: clinical testing

The BBS2 c.72C>G variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Tyr24*). This variant has been reported in the homozygous or compound heterozygous states in individuals with Bardet-Biedl syndrome (Katsanis et al. 2001. PubMed ID: 11567139; Supplementary Data, Stone et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28559085) and was identified in another individual with retinitis pigmentosa, although no second variant was described (Supplementary Data, Jespersgaard et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30718709). This variant is reported in 0.011% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Nonsense variants in BBS2 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
