Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Myriad Genetics, Inc. | Mar 30, 2023 | This variant is considered likely benign. This variant is strongly associated with less severe personal and family histories of cancer, typical for individuals without pathogenic variants in this gene [PMID: 25085752]. - |

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Dec 02, 2020 | 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 provided Uncertain:1Benign:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano | Jul 17, 2024 | The PALB2 c.1273G>A (p.Val425Met) variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals affected with breast cancer (PMIDs: 18446436 (2009), 20722467 (2010), 21618343 (2011), 26489409 (2015), 28825143 (2017), 30287823 (2018)), a Lynch syndrome-associated cancer and/or colorectal polyps (PMID: 25980754 (2015)), colorectal cancer (PMIDs: 28135145 (2017), 33309985 (2020)), prostate cancer (PMID: 31214711 (2020)), as well as in reportedly healthy individuals (PMIDs: 20722467 (2010), 30287823 (2018), 33309985 (2020)). One functional study reported that this variant does not interfere with histone binding as a part of DNA repair (PMID: 32041954 (2020)), however further research is needed. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.0015 (21/14420 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. - |

Malignant tumor of breast Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria provided | clinical testing | Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System | - | PALB2, EXON4, c.1273G>A, p.Val425Met, Heterozygous, Uncertain Significance The PALB2 p.Val425Met variant was identified in 8 of 19,474 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.0004) from individuals with breast cancer or Lynch syndrome and was present in 9 of 23,568 control chromosomes (frequency: 0.0004) from healthy individuals (Momozawa 2018, Li 2015, Yurgelun 2015, Cao 2008, Hellebrand 2011, Guenard 2010). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (rs576081828) as “with uncertain significance allele”, ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by GeneDx and 3 others and as likely benign by Invitae). The variant was identified in control databases in 59 of 276,862 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0002 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: East Asian in 27 of 18,866 chromosomes (freq: 0.001), Other in 1 of 6464 chromosomes (freq: 0.0002), European in 10 of 126,422 chromosomes (freq: 0.00008), and South Asian in 21 of 30,776 chromosomes (freq: 0.0007); it was not observed in the African, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish or Finnish populations. The p.Val425Met residue is not conserved in mammals and four out of five 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 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. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. - |
