BLM (RecQ-like DNA helicase BLM) is an enzyme. The public catalogues list it as a DNA repair gene, and the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role. Tied to Leukaemia, Colorectal cancer, Breast cancer and 4 more. This dossier gathers the 0 products (0 approved), 0 trials, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.
ATP-dependent DNA helicase that unwinds double-stranded (ds)DNA in a 3'-5' direction. Participates in DNA replication and repair. 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. Stimulates DNA 4-way junction branch migration and DNA Holliday junction dissolution. Binds single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), forked duplex DNA and Holliday junction DNA. Unwinds G-quadruplex DNA; unwinding occurs in the 3'-5' direction and requires a 3' single-stranded end of at least 7 nucleotides. Location: Nucleus (UniProt). Locus 15q26.1 (HGNC).
