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]

Bloom syndrome Uncertain:1
Feb 12, 2018
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid with lysine at codon 352 of the BLM protein (p.Glu352Lys). The glutamic acid residue is weakly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between glutamic acid and lysine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with BLM-related disease. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The lysine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, suggesting that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. These predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. 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. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Jul 01, 2022
Ambry Genetics
Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.E352K variant (also known as c.1054G>A), located in coding exon 4 of the BLM gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1054. The glutamic acid at codon 352 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. 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. -
