Genes affected
BLM (HGNC:1058): (BLM RecQ like helicase) The Bloom syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by growth deficiency, microcephaly and immunodeficiency among others. It is caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous mutation in the gene encoding DNA helicase RecQ protein on chromosome 15q26. This Bloom-associated helicase unwinds a variety of DNA substrates including Holliday junction, and is involved in several pathways contributing to the maintenance of genome stability. Identification of pathogenic Bloom variants is required for heterozygote testing in at-risk families. [provided by RefSeq, May 2020]

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 13, 2018This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as likely benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of likely benign for this disease. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMar 03, 2022Variant summary: BLM c.11T>C (p.Val4Ala) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Bloom syndrome protein, N-terminal domain of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0011 in 245310 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than the estimated maximum frequency expected for a pathogenic variant in BLM causing Bloom Syndrome (0.0011 vs 0.0035), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.11T>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Prostate cancer and Non-Hodkin Lymphoma (NHL), and in Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer (HBOC) families (e.g. Hunter_2016, Schuetz_2009, Thompson_2012, Bonache_2018, Tsaousis_2019). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Bloom Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Multiple laboratories reported the variant with conflicting assessments (uncertain significance, n=12; benign/likely benign, n=3). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
