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]

Variant summary: The BBS2 c.814C>T (p.Arg272X) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent BBS2 protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. A truncation downstream of this position, c.823C>T (p.Arg275X) has been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. This variant was found in 3/246118 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000122, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic BBS2 variant (0.0008452). Multiple publications have cited the variant in homozygous affected individuals. The variant of interest has not, to our knowledge, been cited and classified by clinical diagnostic laboratories. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg272*) in the BBS2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in BBS2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11285252, 20177705, 24608809, 26518167). This variant is present in population databases (rs764164384, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Bardet-Biedl syndrome (PMID: 11285252, 28559085). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 552219). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The BBS2 c.814C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg272*). This variant was found in the homozygous state in multiple individuals with Bardet-Biedl syndrome (see family 4 from Nishimura et al. 2001. PubMed ID: 11285252; Hjortshøj et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20120035; Redin et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22773737). This variant is reported in 0.0099% of alleles in individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish descent in gnomAD. Nonsense variants in BBS2 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
