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]

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 163 of the BLM protein (p.Ser163Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs745819553, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with male breast cancer (PMID: 30613976). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 405327). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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. -

The p.S163F variant (also known as c.488C>T), located in coding exon 2 of the BLM gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 488. The serine at codon 163 is replaced by phenylalanine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This variant was detected in a cohort of 523 Italian male breast cancer patients (Rizzolo P et al. Int J Cancer, 2019 07;145:390-400). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
