RCV001958283 | SCV002220472 | uncertain significance | Bloom syndrome | 2021-08-12 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces aspartic acid with tyrosine at codon 44 of the BLM protein (p.Asp44Tyr). The aspartic acid residue is weakly conserved and there is a large physicochemical difference between aspartic acid and tyrosine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BLM-related conditions. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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. |
