Is BBS12 p.Ile50= (c.150C>T) pathogenic?

BBS12 p.Ile50= (c.150C>T) is classified Likely benign in BBS12 (ClinVar, Single submitter, 1 submitter; last evaluated 2023-05-19). Very rare (popmax 0.00534%, afr); Associated with Bardet-Biedl syndrome.

What condition is associated with BBS12 p.Ile50= (c.150C>T)?

BBS12 p.Ile50= (c.150C>T) is associated with Bardet-Biedl syndrome (ClinVar).

How common is BBS12 p.Ile50= (c.150C>T) in the general population?

BBS12 p.Ile50= (c.150C>T) is very rare (popmax 0.00534%, afr) (gnomAD).

How is Bardet-Biedl syndrome inherited?

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

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.
