Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) is a pleiotropic and multisystemic disorder
characterized by rod-cone dystrophy, polydactyly, learning difficulties, renal
abnormalities, obesity and hypogonadism. This disorder is genetically
heterogeneous. Until now, a total of nineteen genes have been identified for BBS
whose mutations explain more than 80% of diagnosed cases. Recently, the
development of next generation sequencing (NGS) technology has accelerated
mutation screening of target genes, resulting in lower cost and less time
consumption. Here, we screened the most common BBS genes (BBS1-BBS13) using NGS
in an Iranian family of a proposita displaying symptoms of BBS. Among the 18
mutations identified in the proposita, one (BBS12 c.56T>G and BBS12 c.1156C>T)
was novel. This compound heterozygosity was confirmed by Sanger sequencing in the
proposita and her parents. Although our data were presented as a case report,
however, we suggest a new probable genetic mechanism other than the conventional
autosomal recessive inheritance of BBS. Additionally, given that in some Iranian
provinces, like Khuzestan, consanguineous marriages are common, designing
mutational panels for genetic diseases is strongly recommended, especially for
those with an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern.
