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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Baylor Genetics	Mar 12, 2023	- -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Myriad Genetics, Inc.	Nov 03, 2021	NM_000057.2(BLM):c.98+1G>A is a canonical splice variant classified as likely pathogenic in the context of Bloom syndrome. c.98+1G>A has not been observed in cases with relevant disease. Functional assessments of this variant are not available in the literature. c.98+1G>A has been observed in population frequency databases (gnomAD: SAS 0.01%). In summary, NM_000057.2(BLM):c.98+1G>A is a canonical splice variant in a gene where loss of function is a known mechanism of disease and is predicted to disrupt protein function. Please note: this variant was assessed in the context of healthy population screening. -
Likely pathogenic, no assertion criteria provided	clinical testing	Natera, Inc.	Nov 10, 2017	- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Dec 08, 2023	This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 2 of the BLM gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs750293380, gnomAD 0.007%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Bloom syndrome and it has also been observed in the heterozygous state in individuals affected with uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma, colorectal cancer, male breast cancer (PMID: 17407155, 26358404, 26689913, 30613976). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 371055). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in exon 2 skipping and activation of a cryptic splice site and introduces a premature termination codon (Invitae). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The c.98+1G>A intronic variant results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 1 of the BLM gene. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. This alteration has been reported in the heterozygous state in an individual with a personal history of early-onset colorectal cancer and a strong family history of colorectal cancer, as well as an individual with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (de Voer RM et al. Sci Rep, 2015 Sep;5:14060; Antonarakis ES et al. Eur. Urol., 2018 08;74:218-225). Another alteration at this position (c.98+1G>T) has been reported in a compound heterozygous state in an individual with Bloom syndrome (German J et al. Hum. Mutat. 2007 Aug;28(8):743-53). Using the BDGP and ESEfinder splice site prediction tools, this alteration is predicted to abolish the native splice donor site; however, direct evidence is unavailable. Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as likely pathogenic. -
