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]

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 403 of the BBS2 protein (p.Arg403Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs766873519, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Bardet-Biedl syndrome (PMID: 22353939). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 319857). 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 not expected to disrupt BBS2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: BBS2 c.1207C>T (p.Arg403Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Ciliary BBSome complex subunit 2, C-terminal domain (IPR029333) of the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 6.8e-05 in 251492 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in BBS2 causing Bardet-Biedl Syndrome (6.8e-05 vs 0.00098), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1207C>T has been reported in the literature in at least one homozygous individual affected with Bardet-Biedl Syndrome (e.g., Abu-Safieh_2012, Shaheen_2016). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 22353939, 27894351). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 319857). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -

Review Status:no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method:clinical testing

The BBS2 c.1207C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg403Cys. This variant has been reported in the homozygous state in one individual with Bardet-Biedl syndrome and in the heterozygous state in another individual who also carried other rare variants in Bardet-Biedl syndrome-related genes (Abu-Safieh et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22353939). The authors did not provide any functional studies to help assess the pathogenicity of the c.1207C>T (p.Arg403Cys) variant. This variant is reported in 0.010% 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. -
