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]

Variant summary: BLM c.410A>G (p.Lys137Arg) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Bloom syndrome protein, N-terminal domain of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0014 in 277122 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.014 within the African subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 2 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within African control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 3.96 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in BLM causing Bloom Syndrome phenotype (0.0035), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African origin. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.410A>G in individuals affected with Bloom Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Four clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as benign/likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

Significance: Benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
