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]

Bardet-Biedl syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 01, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg189*) 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 (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.006%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Bardet-Biedl syndrome (PMID: 16877420, 23432027, 28800606). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 550801). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJun 22, 2020Variant summary: BBS2 c.565C>T (p.Arg189X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251318 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.565C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple homozygous individuals affected with Bardet-Biedl Syndrome (e.g. Castro-Sanchez_2017, Mhamdi_2014, Smaoui_2006). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Two ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
