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:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Oct 22, 2022	This sequence change replaces histidine, which is basic and polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1324 of the BLM protein (p.His1324Tyr). This variant is present in population databases (rs748943489, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Bloom syndrome (PMID: 17407155, 31159747). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 454145). 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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect BLM function (PMID: 17407155). 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	GeneKor MSA	Aug 01, 2018	- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Dec 01, 2022	The p.H1324Y variant (also known as c.3970C>T), located in coding exon 20 of the BLM gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 3970. The histidine at codon 1324 is replaced by tyrosine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant has been identified in one person with Bloom Syndrome and functional studies have shown that it preserves normal BLM protein function in reducing the levels of sister-chromatid exchanges in patient-derived cells (German J et al. Hum. Mutat., 2007 Aug;28:743-53; Perreault-Micale C et al. Mol Genet Genomic Med, 2015 Jul;3:363-73). Another study determined that this variant (reported as c.3970C>T, p.H1324T) was not sensitive to the DNA damaging agent, hydroxyurea, similar to wildtype (Mirzaei H et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 2012 Nov;109:19357-62). This variant was also reported as a variant of unknown signifcance in 1/1197 individuals from Greece, Romania, and Turkey undergoing evaluation for inherited cancer predisposition (Tsaousis GN et al. BMC Cancer, 2019 Jun;19:535). This amino acid position is 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. -
