Is BLM p.Val1027Ile (c.3079G>A) pathogenic?

BLM p.Val1027Ile (c.3079G>A) is classified Uncertain significance in BLM (ClinVar, Multiple submitters, 5 submitters; last evaluated 2025-11-26). AlphaMissense: likely benign (0.1318); Very rare (popmax 0.000681%, nfe); Associated with Bloom syndrome.

What condition is associated with BLM p.Val1027Ile (c.3079G>A)?

BLM p.Val1027Ile (c.3079G>A) is associated with Bloom syndrome, hereditary neoplastic syndrome (ClinVar).

How common is BLM p.Val1027Ile (c.3079G>A) in the general population?

BLM p.Val1027Ile (c.3079G>A) is very rare (popmax 0.000681%, nfe) (gnomAD).

How is Bloom syndrome inherited?

Typically Autosomal recessive (Orphanet). A genetic counselor can assess individual risk for a family.

What do computational predictors say about BLM p.Val1027Ile (c.3079G>A)?

AlphaMissense predicts likely benign (score 0.1318) — an in-silico prediction, not a clinical call.

Computational evidence

Protein change
AlphaMissense	0.1318	likely benign
REVEL	0.39	indeterminate
SaProt	LLR -8.72	tolerated
⇒ AlphaMissense and SaProt both call this tolerated; REVEL is indeterminate.
Splicing
SpliceAI	<0.2	no splice effect predicted · four deltas, not one · how we know

Regional constraint	o/e 0.92	unconstrained · MANE · 46 kb · p 0.035 · regional, not allelic
Overall
CADD	24.0	PHRED · no single calibrated threshold — expert panels disagree

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.
