Ambry Genetics RCV000568146 SCV000672976 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-09-11 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.K1356R variant (also known as c.4067A>G), located in coding exon 20 of the BLM gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 4067. The lysine at codon 1356 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
Invitae RCV001227793 SCV001400166 uncertain significance Bloom syndrome 2022-07-26 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1356 of the BLM protein (p.Lys1356Arg). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.02%). 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: 485342). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The arginine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. 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.
PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV003392414 SCV004120818 uncertain significance BLM-related condition 2022-08-23 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The BLM c.4067A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Lys1356Arg. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.023% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/15-91354627-A-G) and is interpreted as uncertain significance in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/485342/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
