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]

Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria provided	clinical testing	Natera, Inc.	Jun 11, 2018	- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jan 20, 2024	This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1120 of the BLM protein (p.Gly1120Arg). This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 17, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. 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: 454137). 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. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on BLM function (PMID: 23129629, 26788541). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Jan 17, 2023	The p.G1120R variant (also known as c.3358G>A), located in coding exon 16 of the BLM gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 3358. The amino acid change results in glycine to arginine at codon 1120, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. Functional studies found p.G1120R to be partially deficient with respect to chromosome abnormalities and response and sensitivity to DNA damaging agents (Mirzaei H et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 2012 Nov;109:19357-62; Shastri VM et al. Mol Genet Genomic Med, 2016 Jan;4:106-19). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
