Genes affected
BFSP1 (HGNC:1040): (beaded filament structural protein 1) This gene encodes a lens-specific intermediate filament-like protein named filensin. The encoded protein is expressed in lens fiber cells after differentiation has begun. This protein functions as a component of the beaded filament which is a cytoskeletal structure found in lens fiber cells. Mutations in this gene are the cause of autosomal recessive cortical juvenile-onset cataract. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]

Cataract 33 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 02, 2024This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 271 of the BFSP1 protein (p.Ile271Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs147718368, gnomAD 0.5%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with congenital cataracts (PMID: 26694549). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 242475). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on BFSP1 protein function. 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. -

BFSP1-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesApr 22, 2024The BFSP1 c.812T>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ile271Thr. This variant was reported in an individual with congenital cataracts who was found to also carry a frameshift variant in the same gene, however, the phase wasn’t fully determined (Ma et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26694549). This variant is reported in 0.50% of alleles in individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
