Genes affected
BSCL2 (HGNC:15832): (BSCL2 lipid droplet biogenesis associated, seipin) This gene encodes the multi-pass transmembrane protein protein seipin. This protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and may be important for lipid droplet morphology. Mutations in this gene have been associated with congenital generalized lipodystrophy type 2 or Berardinelli-Seip syndrome, a rare autosomal recessive disease characterized by a near absence of adipose tissue and severe insulin resistance. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. Naturally occurring read-through transcription occurs between this locus and the neighboring locus HNRNPUL2 (heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein U-like 2).[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]

Submissions by phenotype

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2 Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 06, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu189*) in the BSCL2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BSCL2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11479539, 23564749). This variant is present in population databases (rs137852975, gnomAD 0.04%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Berardinelli-Seip congenital lipodystrophy (PMID: 18057387, 19041432, 19762912, 24778225, 27612026). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is also known as p.Glu253*. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 4546). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
