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]

The p.A363P variant (also known as c.1087G>C), located in coding exon 4 of the BLM gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 1087. The amino acid change results in alanine to proline at codon 363, an amino acid with highly similar properties. However, this change occurs in the last base pair of coding exon 4, which makes it likely to have some effect on normal mRNA splicing. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, as a missense substitution this is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
