Ambry Genetics | RCV002351710 | SCV002651086 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2023-04-19 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.Q184E variant (also known as c.550C>G), located in coding exon 2 of the BLM gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 550. The glutamine at codon 184 is replaced by glutamic acid, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is 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. |

RCV003102739 | SCV003466909 | uncertain significance | Bloom syndrome | 2024-04-04 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces glutamine, which is neutral and polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 184 of the BLM protein (p.Gln184Glu). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.01%). 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: 1748020). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. 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. |
