1 11381270 Six distinct BBS loci map to 11q13 (BBS1), 16q21 (BBS2), 3p13-p12 (BBS3), 15q22.3-q23 (BBS4), 2q31 (BBS5), and 20p12 (BBS6).
2 11381270 MKKS has sequence homology to the alpha subunit of a prokaryotic chaperonin in the thermosome Thermoplasma acidophilum.
3 11381270 Here we report the positional cloning and identification of mutations in BBS patients in a novel gene designated BBS4.
4 12118255 What was once thought to be a homogeneous autosomal recessive disorder is now known to map to at least six loci: 11q13 (BBS1), 16q21 (BBS2), 3p13 p12 (BBS3), 15q22.3 q23 (BBS4), 2q31 (BBS5) and 20p12 (BBS6).
5 12118255 Cases of BBS mapping ro BBS6 are caused by mutations in MKKS; mutations in this gene also cause McKusick-Kaufman syndrome (hydrometrocolpos, post-axial polydactyly and congenital heart defects).
6 12118255 In addition, we recently used positional cloning to identify the genes underlying BBS2 (ref. 16) and BBS4 (ref. 17).
7 12118255 The BBS6 protein has similarity to a Thermoplasma acidophilum chaperonin, whereas BBS2 and BBS4 have no significant similarity to chaperonins.
8 12118255 Here we report the identification of the gene BBS1 and show that a missense mutation of this gene is a frequent cause of BBS.
9 12524598 BBS is known to map to at least six loci: 11q13 (BBS1), 16q21 (BBS2), 3p13-p12 (BBS3), 15q22.3-q23 (BBS4), 2q31 (BBS5), and 20p12 (BBS6).
10 12524598 Although these loci were all mapped on the basis of an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance, it has recently been suggested-on the basis of mutation analysis of the identified BBS2, BBS4, and BBS6 genes-that BBS displays a complex mode of inheritance in which, in some families, three mutations at two loci are necessary to manifest the disease phenotype.
11 12524598 In the present study we evaluate the involvement of the BBS1 gene in a cohort of 129 probands with BBS and report 10 novel BBS1 mutations.
12 15666242 A mutation of the BBS1 gene on chromosome 11q13 is observed in 30%-40% of BBS cases.
13 15666242 In six cases, we identified a recessive mutation in a BBS gene (three in BBS2, two in BBS4, and one in BBS6).
14 15666242 No BBS1, BBS3, BBS5, BBS7, or BBS8 mutations were identified in our series.
15 15666242 These results suggest that the antenatal presentation of BBS may mimic Meckel syndrome.
16 22500027 To date, 16 BBS genes have been reported, seven of which (BBS1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, and 9) code for proteins that form a complex known as the BBSome.
17 22500027 Three additional BBS genes (BBS6, BBS10, and BBS12) have homology to type II chaperonins and interact with CCT/TRiC proteins and BBS7 to form a complex termed the BBS-chaperonin complex.
18 22500027 By characterizing BBSome assembly intermediates, we show that the BBS-chaperonin complex plays a role in BBS7 stability.
19 22500027 BBS7 interacts with BBS2 and becomes part of a BBS7-BBS2-BBS9 assembly intermediate referred to as the BBSome core complex because it forms the core of the BBSome.
20 22500027 BBS1, BBS5, BBS8, and finally BBS4 are added to the BBSome core to form the complete BBSome.
