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.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Met296*) in the PALB2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PALB2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17200668, 24136930, 25099575). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has been observed in individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 25099575, 28779002). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 143979). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.886delA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 4 of the PALB2 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 886, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.M296*). This alteration has been reported in an individuals with breast and basal cell carcinoma (Antoniou AC et al. N Engl J Med, 2014 Aug;371:497-506; Decker B et al. J Med Genet, 2017 11;54:732-741; Cho HG et al. JCI Insight, 2018 08;3:). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
