2025-10-15
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Bardet-Biedl Syndrome (BBS) is a ciliopathy often associated with progressive blindness and obesity. A patient presenting with BBS was discovered to have two mutations within 55bp of each other in intron 7 of SDCCAG8 ( BBS16 ). One of the biallelic mutations, c.740+356C>T, causes inclusion of cryptic exon(s) containing premature termination codons, while c.740+301G>A has not been characterized...
