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]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -3 ACMG points.

BP4

Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.16166195).

BS1

Variant frequency is greater than expected in population mid. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.0000198 (29/1461776) while in subpopulation MID AF = 0.00208 (12/5768). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0012. There are 1 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 17 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.Q497R variant (also known as c.1490A>G), located in coding exon 6 of the BLM gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1490. The glutamine at codon 497 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. -
