Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:2
This 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. -

Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Observed in an individual with colorectal cancer and in both cases and controls in a breast cancer study (Yurgelun et al., 2017; Dorling et al., 2021); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 33471991, 24485656, 19609323, 20871615, 28135145) -
Malignant tumor of breast Uncertain:1
PALB2, EXON07, c.2743G>A, p.Ala915Thr, Heterozygous, Uncertain Significance The PALB2 p.Ala915Thr variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the Cosmic, MutDB, LOVD 3.0, Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database, databases. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs374736398) as With Uncertain significance allele, ClinVar (classified as likely benign by Ambry Genetics; classified as uncertain significance by Invitae, GeneDx), Clinvitae (conflicting interpretations of pathogenicity), databases. The variant was identified in control databases in 6 of 246250 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.000024 increasing the likelihood that this may be a low frequency benign variant in certain populations of origin (Genome Aggregation Consortium Feb 27, 2017). The p.Ala915 residue is not conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 1 of 5 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing; this is not very predictive of pathogenicity. The variant is located with the WD40-repeat-containing domain functional domain increasing the likelihood that it may have clinical significance. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -
Familial cancer of breast Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 915 of the PALB2 protein (p.Ala915Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs374736398, gnomAD 0.006%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PALB2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 141109). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt PALB2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
