Bardet-Biedl syndrome 9    Uncertain:1

BBS9-related disorder    Uncertain:1 
The BBS9 c.1538-7T>G variant is predicted to interfere with splicing. This intronic change is predicted to diminish the strength of the nearby canonical splice acceptor site (Alamut Visual v1.6.1). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.0053% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. 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 
This sequence change falls in intron 14 of the BBS9 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the BBS9 protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs375661214, gnomAD 0.006%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BBS9-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 462969). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. 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. -
