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.

Significance: Likely benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

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. -

PALB2, EXON5, c.2505C>T, p.Ser835Ser, Heterozygous, Likely Benign The PALB2 p.Ser835= variant was identified in the literature in 1 of 24,980 control chromosomes from healthy individuals (frequency: 0.00008) in a large population study and was not identified in an affected population (Momozawa 2018). The variant was identified in dbSNP (rs756502783) as “with likely benign, other allele”, ClinVar (classified as likely benign by Invitae, GeneDx and 2 others; and as uncertain significance by EGL diagnostics) and LOVD 3.0 (observed 1x). The variant was identified in control databases in 2 of 245,838 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.000008 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: African in 1 of 15,300 chromosomes (freq: 0.00006) and European in 1 of 111,350 chromosomes (freq: 0.000009), but not in the “Other”, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, Finnish, or South Asian populations. The p.Ser835= variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it does not result in a change of amino acid and is not a conserved nucleotide. In addition, the variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time, although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. Assessment Date: 2019/07/23 References (PMIDs): 30287823 -
