Description

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. This variant disrupts the nuclear localization signal (NLS) and the topoisomerase I (TOP1) domain of BLM protein, which are critical for BLM localization to the nucleus and TOP1-mediated RNA:DNA unwinding (PMID: 27657136, 9388480, 10569803, 27657136). While functional studies have not been performed to directly test the effect of this variant on BLM protein function, this suggests that disruption of this region of the protein is causative of disease. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 554289). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with BLM-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ile1319Asnfs*87) in the BLM gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 99 amino acid(s) of the BLM protein.
