NM_000057.4:c.2360A>G
Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points: 0P and 2B. BP4_Moderate
The NM_000057.4(BLM):c.2360A>G(p.Lys787Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000867 in 1,613,866 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 15/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. K787E) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Bloom syndrome Uncertain:2
This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 787 of the BLM protein (p.Lys787Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs778695045, gnomAD 0.005%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BLM-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 568851). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BLM protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

not specified Uncertain:1
DNA sequence analysis of the BLM gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.2360A>G, in exon 11 that results in an amino acid change, p.Lys787Arg. This sequence change does not appear to have been previously described in patients with BLM-related disorders and has been described in the gnomAD database with a low population frequency of 0.0028% (dbSNP rs778695045). The p.Lys787Arg change affects a poorly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the BLM protein that is known to be functional. The p.Lys787Arg substitution appears to be benign using several in-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL). Due to these contrasting evidences and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Lys787Arg change remains unknown at this time -
not provided Uncertain:1
Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis indicates that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Observed in an individual with breast cancer (Yararbas et al, 2024); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: Yararbas2024[article]) -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
The p.K787R variant (also known as c.2360A>G), located in coding exon 10 of the BLM gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 2360. The lysine at codon 787 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
