Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points: 0P and 5B. BP4_StrongBP6
The NM_024675.4(PALB2):c.2066C>T(p.Ser689Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000041 in 1,461,884 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 16/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. S689A) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:1
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. -
This missense variant replaces serine with leucine at codon 689 of the PALB2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in one individual each affected with breast cancer (PMID: 33646313) or breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 34299313). In breast cancer case-control studies, this variant has been reported in 1/7051 female cases and in 1/11241 unaffected individuals (PMID: 30287823) 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_010450). This variant also has been reported in a homozygous carrier who lacked clinical features of Fanconi anemia (SCV004020131.1). This variant has been identified in 1/251460 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. -
Familial cancer of breast Uncertain:1Benign:1
This variant is considered likely benign. Homozygosity for this variant has been confirmed in one or more individuals lacking clinical features consistent with gene-specific recessive disease, indicating that this variant is unlikely to be pathogenic. -
This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 689 of the PALB2 protein (p.Ser689Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs749602688, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 26110843, 30287823, 33646313). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 241537). 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. -
PALB2-related disorder Uncertain:1
The PALB2 c.2066C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ser689Leu. This variant has been reported in cases and controls from a female breast cancer cohort and was interpreted as uncertain significance (Momozawa et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 30287823, Supp. Data 1). It has also been seen in a single patient with breast cancer (George et al 2021. PubMed ID: 33646313, eTable 3). This variant is reported in 0.00088% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. In ClinVar, this variant has conflicting interpretations of likely benign and uncertain significance (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/241537/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
