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]

not provided Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoDec 03, 2022To the best of our knowledge, the variant has not been reported in the published literature. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00052 (14/27058 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using software algorithms for the prediction of the effect of nucleotide changes on splicing yielded predictions that this variant does not affect BLM mRNA splicing . Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxFeb 06, 2023Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; In silico analysis is inconclusive as to whether the variant alters gene splicing. In the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJul 03, 2023The c.3210+4A>G intronic variant results from an A to G substitution 4 nucleotides after coding exon 15 in the BLM gene. This nucleotide position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration may weaken the native splice donor site. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
