Is BLM p.Asn124Ser (c.371A>G) pathogenic?

BLM p.Asn124Ser (c.371A>G) is classified Uncertain significance in BLM (ClinVar, Multiple submitters, 2 submitters; last evaluated 2024-03-17). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.0753); Ultra-rare (popmax 0.034%, sas); Associated with hereditary neoplastic syndrome.

What condition is associated with BLM p.Asn124Ser (c.371A>G)?

BLM p.Asn124Ser (c.371A>G) is associated with hereditary neoplastic syndrome, Bloom syndrome (ClinVar).

How common is BLM p.Asn124Ser (c.371A>G) in the general population?

BLM p.Asn124Ser (c.371A>G) is ultra-rare (popmax 0.034%, sas) (gnomAD).

What do computational predictors say about BLM p.Asn124Ser (c.371A>G)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.0753) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

Computational evidence

Protein change
AlphaMissense	0.0753	likely benign
REVEL	0.038	moderately benign-leaning
SaProt	LLR -5.55	tolerated
⇒ AlphaMissense, REVEL and SaProt all call this tolerated.

ClinVar classifies this uncertain; the computational predictors unanimously lean tolerated — a triage signal, not a reclassification

AlphaMissense carries the ACMG weight for missense; REVEL and SaProt are independent agreement signals.

Rarity supports pathogenicity (ACMG PM2); frequency above a disease-specific BA1/BS1 threshold argues against it. A variant frequent in one ancestry group can be near-absent in others, so a single global figure can mislead.
