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.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:2
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJul 17, 2016This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

PALB2-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesApr 25, 2024The PALB2 c.2964A>G variant is not predicted to result in an amino acid change (p.=). This variant is predicted to impact splicing based on splicing prediction programs (SpliceAI, Jaganathan K, et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30661751). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.00088% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoOct 10, 2024The PALB2 c.2964A>G (p.Gln988=) synonymous variant has not been reported in individuals with PALB2-related conditions in the published literature. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000004 (1/251470 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using software algorithms for the prediction of the effect of nucleotide changes on PALB2 mRNA splicing yielded predictions that this variant may result in the gain of cryptic splice sites without affecting the natural splice sites. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
