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:4

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jan 25, 2024	This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1331 of the BLM protein (p.Arg1331Gly). This variant is present in population databases (rs150631940, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 35264596). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 127507). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt BLM protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect BLM function (PMID: 23129629). 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	Center for Genomics, Ann and Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago	Mar 30, 2021	BLM NM_000057 exon 21 p.Arg1331Gly (c.3991A>G):This variant has not been reported in the literature but is present in 5/24038 African alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/rs150631940). This variant is present in ClinVar (Variation ID:127507). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools suggest that this variant may not impact the protein. Functional studies suggest that this variant may not impact the protein (Mirzaei 2012 PMID:231296269). However, these studies may not accurately represent in vivo biological function. In summary, data on this variant is insufficient for disease classification. Therefore, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. -

The p.R1331G variant (also known as c.3991A>G), located in coding exon 20 of the BLM gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 3991. The arginine at codon 1331 is replaced by glycine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. In a study using a humanized yeast model, this alteration was found to perform similar to wildtype when exposed to a DNA-damaging agent (Mirzaei H et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 2012 Nov;109:19357-62). This alteration was identified in an individual diagnosed with colorectal cancer (DeRycke MS et al. Mol Genet Genomic Med, 2017 Sep;5:553-569). 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. -
