Remarks

Clinically affected; B.S. Registry # 26; born at term; birth weight = 2,229 grams; at age 1.3 years: weight = 6.3 kg, height = 66 cm; at age 1 year head circumference = 40.8 cm; sun sensitive facial telangiectasias; sacral dimple; elevated chromosome breakage; elevated sister chromosome exchange level; one affected sister; donor is a compound heterozygote: one allele has a 1-bp deletion at nucleotide 3261 of the RECQL3 gene [3261delT] and a second allele has a 6-bp deletion/7-bp insertion [6-bp del/7-bp ins] at nucleotide 2,281 of the open reading frame of the RECQL3 gene, which results in a frameshift and a stop codon.

Identified Mutation

6-BP DEL/7-BP INS; In 4 ostensibly unrelated persons of Jewish ancestry, Ellis et al. [Cell 83: 655 (1995)] found homozygosity for a 6-bp deletion/7-bp insertion at nucleotide 2281 of the BLM cDNA. Deletion of ATCTGA and insertion of TAGATTC caused the insertion of the novel codons for LDSR after amino acid 736, and after these codons there was a stop codon. Ellis et al. [Cell 83: 655 (1995)] concluded that a person carrying this deletion/insertion mutation was a founder of the Ashkenazi-Jewish population, and that nearly all Ashkenazi Jews with Bloom syndrome inherited the mutation identical by descent from this common ancestor.
