Genes affected

PALB2 (HGNC:26144): (partner and localizer of BRCA2) This gene encodes a protein that may function in tumor suppression. This protein binds to and colocalizes with the breast cancer 2 early onset protein (BRCA2) in nuclear foci and likely permits the stable intranuclear localization and accumulation of BRCA2.

ACMG classification

Specifications for PALB2 are available in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry and recommended for reference when assigning criteria.

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 16 ACMG points.

• PS3: PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV002607315: RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Ambry internal data).
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: Splicing predictors support a deleterious effect. Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF. Scorers claiming Uncertain: max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Benign.
• PP5: Variant 16-23621357-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr16-23621357-C-T is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 663588.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
