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]

Submissions by phenotype

Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMay 16, 2022The c.358G>A (p.A120T) alteration is located in exon 3 (coding exon 3) of the BBS2 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 358, causing the alanine (A) at amino acid position 120 to be replaced by a threonine (T). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

BBS2-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesFeb 15, 2024The BBS2 c.358G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ala120Thr. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.092% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD, which may be too common to be an undocumented primary cause of disease. Although we suspect that this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Bardet-Biedl syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 17, 2022This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 120 of the BBS2 protein (p.Ala120Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs148808295, gnomAD 0.1%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BBS2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 410986). 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) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt BBS2 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. -
