Description

Bardet-Biedl syndrome is an autosomal recessive and genetically heterogeneous ciliopathy characterized by retinitis pigmentosa, obesity, kidney dysfunction, polydactyly, behavioral dysfunction, and hypogonadism (summary by Beales et al., 1999). Eight proteins implicated in the disorder assemble to form the BBSome, a stable complex involved in signaling receptor trafficking to and from cilia (summary by Scheidecker et al., 2014). Genetic Heterogeneity of Bardet-Biedl SyndromeBBS1 is caused by mutation in a gene on chromosome 11q13 (OMIM ); BBS2 (OMIM ), by mutation in a gene on 16q13 (OMIM ); BBS3 (OMIM ), by mutation in the ARL6 gene on 3q11 (OMIM ); BBS4 (OMIM ), by mutation in a gene on 15q22 (OMIM ); BBS5 (OMIM ), by mutation in a gene on 2q31 (OMIM ); BBS6 (OMIM ), by the MKKS gene on 20p12 (OMIM ), mutations in which also cause McKusick-Kaufman syndrome (OMIM ); BBS7 (OMIM ), by mutation in a gene on 4q27 (OMIM ); BBS8 (OMIM ), by mutation in the TTC8 gene on 14q32 (OMIM ); BBS9 (OMIM ), by mutation in a gene on 7p14 (OMIM ); BBS10 (OMIM ), by mutation in a gene on 12q (OMIM ); BBS11 (OMIM ), by mutation in the TRIM32 gene on 9q33 (OMIM ); BBS12 (OMIM ), by mutation in a gene on 4q27 (OMIM ); BBS13 (OMIM ), by mutation in the MKS1 gene (OMIM ) on 17q23, mutations in which also cause Meckel syndrome-1 (OMIM ); BBS14 (OMIM ), by mutation in the CEP290 gene (OMIM ) on 12q21, mutations in which also cause Meckel syndrome-4 (OMIM ) and several other disorders; BBS15 (OMIM ), by mutation in the C2ORF86 gene (OMIM ), which encodes a homolog of the Drosophila planar cell polarity gene 'fritz,' on 2p15; BBS16 (OMIM ), by mutation in the SDCCAG8 gene (OMIM ) on 1q43, mutations in which also cause Senior-Loken syndrome-7 (OMIM ); BBS17 (OMIM ), by mutation in the LZTFL1 gene (OMIM ) on 3p21; BBS18 (OMIM ), by mutation in the BBIP1 gene (OMIM ) on 10q25; BBS19 (OMIM ), by mutation in the IFT27 gene (OMIM ) on 22q12; BBS20 (OMIM ), by mutation in the IFT74 gene (OMIM ) on 9p21; and BBS21 (OMIM ), by mutation in the C8ORF37 gene (OMIM ).The CCDC28B gene (OMIM ) modifies the expression of BBS phenotypes in patients who have mutations in other genes. Mutations in MKS1, MKS3 (TMEM67 ), and C2ORF86 also modify the expression of BBS phenotypes in patients who have mutations in other genes.Although BBS had originally been thought to be a recessive disorder, Katsanis et al. (2001) demonstrated that clinical manifestation of some forms of Bardet-Biedl syndrome requires recessive mutations in 1 of the 6 loci plus an additional mutation in a second locus. While Katsanis et al. (2001) called this 'triallelic inheritance,' Burghes et al. (2001) suggested the term 'recessive inheritance with a modifier of penetrance.' Mykytyn et al. (2002) found no evidence of involvement of the common BBS1 mutation in triallelic inheritance. However, Fan et al. (2004) found heterozygosity in a mutation of the BBS3 gene ({608845.0002}) as an apparent modifier of the expression of homozygosity of the met390-to-arg mutation in the BBS1 gene ({209901.0001}).Allelic disorders include nonsyndromic forms of retinitis pigmentosa: RP51 (OMIM ), caused by TTC8 mutation, and RP55 (OMIM ), caused by ARL6 mutation.
