The Bloom syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by growth deficiency, microcephaly and immunodeficiency among others. It is caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous mutation in the gene encoding DNA helicase RecQ protein on chromosome 15q26. This Bloom-associated helicase unwinds a variety of DNA substrates including Holliday junction, and is involved i... See more...

Entrez Gene Summary for BLM Gene

  • The Bloom syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by growth deficiency, microcephaly and immunodeficiency among others. It is caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous mutation in the gene encoding DNA helicase RecQ protein on chromosome 15q26. This Bloom-associated helicase unwinds a variety of DNA substrates including Holliday junction, and is involved in several pathways contributing to the maintenance of genome stability. Identification of pathogenic Bloom variants is required for heterozygote testing in at-risk families. [provided by RefSeq, May 2020]

GeneCards Summary for BLM Gene

BLM (BLM RecQ Like Helicase) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with BLM include Bloom Syndrome and Cutaneous Telangiectasia And Cancer Syndrome, Familial. Among its related pathways are Resolution of D-loop Structures through Holliday Junction Intermediates and Homologous DNA Pairing and Strand Exchange. Gene Ontology (GO) annotations related to this gene include nucleic acid binding and ATPase activity. An important paralog of this gene is WRN.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot Summary for BLM Gene

  • ATP-dependent DNA helicase that unwinds single- and double-stranded DNA in a 3'-5' direction (PubMed:9388193, PubMed:24816114, PubMed:25901030). Participates in DNA replication and repair (PubMed:12019152, PubMed:21325134, PubMed:23509288). Involved in 5'-end resection of DNA during double-strand break (DSB) repair: unwinds DNA and recruits DNA2 which mediates the cleavage of 5'-ssDNA (PubMed:21325134). Negatively regulates sister chromatid exchange (SCE) (PubMed:25901030). Stimulates DNA 4-way junction branch migration and DNA Holliday junction dissolution (PubMed:25901030). Binds single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), forked duplex DNA and DNA Holliday junction (PubMed:20639533, PubMed:24257077, PubMed:25901030). Recruited by the KHDC3L-OOEP scaffold to DNA replication forks where it is retained by TRIM25 ubiquitination, it thereby promotes the restart of stalled replication forks (By similarity).

This association could be a dynamic process changing throughout the cell cycle and within subnuclear domains. Interacts with RMI complex. Interacts directly with RMI1 (via N-terminal region) component of RMI complex. Found in a complex, at least composed of BLM, RAD51 and SPIDR; the complex formation is mediated by SPIDR. Interacts with the KHDC3L/FILIA-OOEP/FLOPED scaffold complex and TRIM25 at DNA replication forks (By similarity). Interacts with ubiquitinated FANCD2 (PubMed:15257300). Interacts with SUPV3L1 (PubMed:17961633). Interacts with TOP3A (via N-terminal region).

BLM_HUMAN
  • Bloom syndrome (BLM) [MIM:210900]: An autosomal recessive disorder. It is characterized by proportionate pre- and postnatal growth deficiency, sun-sensitive telangiectatic hypo- and hyperpigmented skin, predisposition to malignancy, and chromosomal instability. {ECO:0000269 PubMed:10862105, ECO:0000269 PubMed:7585968, ECO:0000269 PubMed:9285778}. Note=The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
