RCV002629544 | SCV003521788 | likely pathogenic | Bloom syndrome | 2024-09-04 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change falls in intron 8 of the BLM gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the BLM protein. RNA analysis indicates that this variant induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or altered protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BLM-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2201215). Studies have shown that this variant results in multiple mRNA products including intron retention, and produces a non-functional protein and/or introduces a premature termination codon (internal data). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. |
