| Abstract Purpose: Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS: OMIM 209,900) is a rare ciliopathic human genetic disorder that affects many parts of the body systems. BBS is a genetically heterogeneous disorder with a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations which makes its diagnosis and management more challenging. RetNet reports 18 genes that cause BBS and each of genes has had several known mutations. Genetic studies suggesting that serologically defined colon cancer antigen 8 (SDCCAG8) gene mutations are a major cause of BBS. Materials and methods: In this section, we investigated the consanguineous Iranian family members with BBS. Whole-exome sequencing and Sanger sequencing, were performed to screen and confirm the suspicious pathogenic mutations. The identified mutation was investigated using bioinformatics tools to predict the effect of the mutation on protein structure. Results: Sequential analysis identified a novel splice site mutation c.1221 + 2 T > A in the SDCCAG8 gene in BBS patients. Structure-based approaches have predicted significant structural alterations in SDCCAG8 protein. Conclusions: This study was conducted to show the aberrant alternative splicing as one of the single splicing mutations identified can cause BBS by affecting the function of SDCCAG8 protein. |
