Is BBS10 p.Val36Phe (c.106G>T) pathogenic?

BBS10 p.Val36Phe (c.106G>T) is classified Uncertain significance in BBS10 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 2 submitters; last evaluated 2026-01-19). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.2796); Very rare (popmax 0.00801%, afr); Associated with Bardet-Biedl syndrome.

What condition is associated with BBS10 p.Val36Phe (c.106G>T)?

BBS10 p.Val36Phe (c.106G>T) is associated with Bardet-Biedl syndrome, Bardet-Biedl syndrome 10 (ClinVar).

How common is BBS10 p.Val36Phe (c.106G>T) in the general population?

BBS10 p.Val36Phe (c.106G>T) is very rare (popmax 0.00801%, afr) (gnomAD).

How is Bardet-Biedl syndrome inherited?

Typically Autosomal recessive, Oligogenic (Orphanet). A genetic counselor can assess individual risk for a family.

What do computational predictors say about BBS10 p.Val36Phe (c.106G>T)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.2796) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

Rarity supports pathogenicity (ACMG PM2); frequency above a disease-specific BA1/BS1 threshold argues against it. A variant frequent in one ancestry group can be near-absent in others, so a single global figure can mislead.
