RCV000628720 | SCV000749626 | pathogenic | Bloom syndrome | 2017-09-06 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is an out-of-frame deletion of the genomic region encompassing exon 15 of the BLM gene. This is expected to create a premature translational stop signal and result in an absent or disrupted protein product. A similar deletion of exon 15 has been reported in the literature in an individual with Bloom syndrome who also had a second pathogenic BLM variant (PMID: 17407155). Loss-of-function variants in BLM are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17407155). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. |
