Quick answer
The Bloom syndrome carrier test is a genetic blood test that looks for a specific mutation in the BLM gene. Bloom syndrome is an inherited condition passed in an autosomal recessive pattern, which means a person must inherit a mutation from each parent to be affected. A carrier has one altered copy and usually no symptoms. This test helps people understand whether they carry the common founder mutation associated with Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry.
What this test measures
Bloom syndrome is a rare inherited disorder caused by changes in the BLM gene. The gene provides instructions for a protein that helps maintain the stability of DNA. When it does not work properly, cells show a higher rate of genetic changes, which can lead to the features associated with the condition, such as short stature and a sensitivity to sunlight.
The condition follows an autosomal recessive pattern. A person who inherits one altered copy of the gene is a carrier and typically has no health effects from that single copy. If both parents are carriers, each pregnancy has a chance of producing a child who inherits two altered copies and is affected. Carrier testing looks for a common mutation in the BLM gene that is seen more often in people of Ashkenazi Jewish descent.
The test requires a blood sample, and the laboratory examines the BLM gene for the mutation of interest. It can identify carriers and may also be used in a diagnostic setting when a healthcare provider suspects the condition. Genetic results carry implications for family members as well, so counseling before and after testing is often recommended to help interpret what a result means.
