Genes affected
BBS7 (HGNC:18758): (Bardet-Biedl syndrome 7) This gene encodes one of eight proteins that form the BBSome complex containing BBS1, BBS2, BBS4, BBS5, BBS7, BBS8, BBS9 and BBIP10. The BBSome complex is believed to recruit Rab8(GTP) to the primary cilium and promote ciliogenesis. The BBSome complex assembly is mediated by a complex composed of three chaperonin-like BBS proteins (BBS6, BBS10, and BBS12) and CCT/TRiC family chaperonins. Mutations in this gene are implicated in Bardet-Biedl syndrome, a genetic disorder whose symptoms include obesity, retinal degeneration, polydactyly and nephropathy; however, mutations in this gene and the BBS8 gene are thought to play a minor role and mutations in chaperonin-like BBS genes are found to be a major contributor to disease development in a multiethnic Bardet-Biedl syndrome patient population. Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2014]

The c.712_715del (p.Arg238GlufsTer59) frameshift variant in BBS7 gene has been has been observed to be homozygous or in combination with another BBS7 variant in individuals with Bardet-Biedl Syndrome (Ece et al., 2015; Bin et al., 2009). The p.Pro790GlnfsTer98 variant is reported with the allele frequency (0.005%) in the gnomAD Exomes and is novel (not in any individuals) in 1000 Genomes. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Pathogenic. This variant causes a frameshift starting with codon Arginine 238, changes this amino acid to Glutamic Acid residue, and creates a premature Stop codon at position 59 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Arg238GlufsTer59. Loss-of-function variants in BBS7 are known to be pathogenic (Badano et al., 2003). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The BBS7 c.712_715delAGAG variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Arg238Glufs*59). This variant has been reported in the homozygous or compound heterozygous state in individuals with Bardet-Biedl syndrome (Bin et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19402160; Ece Solmaz et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26518167), and chain terminating variants in BBS7 are a well-established mechanism of pathogenicity. This variant is reported in 0.011% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg238Glufs*59) in the BBS7 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BBS7 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 12567324, 19402160, 21209035, 31196119). This variant is present in population databases (rs760165634, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with Bardet-Biedl Syndrome (PMID: 19402160, 26518167). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 281626). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
