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]
HNRNPUL2-BSCL2 (HGNC:49189): (HNRNPUL2-BSCL2 readthrough (NMD candidate)) This locus represents naturally occurring read-through transcription between the neighboring HNRNPUL2 (heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein U-like 2) and BSCL2 (Berardinelli-Seip congenital lipodystrophy 2 (seipin)) genes on chromosome 11. The read-through transcript is a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD), and is unlikely to produce a protein product. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]

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

The c.107G>T (p.C36F) alteration is located in exon 2 (coding exon 1) of the BSCL2 gene. This alteration results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 107, causing the cysteine (C) at amino acid position 36 to be replaced by a phenylalanine (F). The heterozygous missense change is ultra rare in population databases:_x000D_ _x000D_ Based on data from the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD), the BSCL2 c.107G>T alteration was observed in <0.001% (2/277,084). A similar amino acid change has been observed in an affected individual: _x000D_ _x000D_ A similar missense change affecting the same amino acid c.107G>A (p.C36Y) was reported in a patient with spastic paraplegia mild mental retardation, and no amyotrophy (Ishiura, 2014). The altered amino acid is conserved throughout evolution:_x000D_ _x000D_ The p.C36 amino acid is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico prediction is conflicting:_x000D_ _x000D_ The p.C36F alteration is predicted to be possibly damaging by Polyphen and tolerated by SIFT in silico analyses. Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The BSCL2 c.299G>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Cys100Phe. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.0085% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 36 of the BSCL2 protein (p.Cys36Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs147314661, gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BSCL2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 246509). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BSCL2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
