RCV002913779 | SCV003254465 | likely pathogenic | Bloom syndrome | 2022-07-05 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | 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. Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in activation of a cryptic splice site and introduces a premature termination codon (Invitae). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BLM-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.007%). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 2 of the BLM gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. |
