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.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Baylor Genetics	Jan 22, 2024	- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Sep 23, 2022	This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 744 of the PALB2 protein (p.Glu744Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs62625278, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 30309218). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 128129). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Neuberg Centre For Genomic Medicine, NCGM	-	The c.2230G>A (p.Glu744Lys) missense variant in PALB2 gene has been submitted to ClinVar as a Variant of Uncertain Significance/Likely benign. This variant is reported with the allele frequency (0.003%) in the gnomAD and novel in 1000 genome database. The amino acid Glu at position 744 is changed to a Lys changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. The amino acid change p.Glu744Lys in PALB2 is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS). -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Sep 10, 2019	Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek 2016); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function; Observed in individuals with breast or ovarian cancer (Rashid 2018); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 30309218) -

Uncertain:1Benign:1

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	Oct 18, 2023	This missense variant replaces glutamic acid with lysine at codon 744 of the PALB2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with breast cancer and in a breast cancer case-control meta-analysis in 0/60466 cases and 2/53461 unaffected individuals (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID PALB2_010920). This variant has been identified in 9/251494 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Jan 31, 2018	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. -

Variant summary: PALB2 c.2230G>A (p.Glu744Lys) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.6e-05 in 252238 control chromosomes (gnomAD, Rashid_2019). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.2230G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Breast Cancer (Rashid_2019), however, this report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Breast Cancer. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Five ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014: four classified the variant as of uncertain significance and one as likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
