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:Pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Met296Asnfs*7) 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, 17200671, 17200672, 24136930, 25099575). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PALB2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 410157). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant inserts 1 nucleotide in exon 4 of the PALB2 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. Functional assays performed on xenograft from a carrier of this variant showed defects in PALB2 protein expression, recruitment of RAD51 foci after DNA damage and in a homology-directed repair assay (PMID: 30377213). This variant has been reported in two individuals affected with breast cancer and another individual affected with personal and/or family history of breast cancer (PMID: 25099575, 31871109; DOI: 10.3934/genet.2015.4.263). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of PALB2 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance:Pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.886dupA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 4 of the PALB2 gene, results from a duplication of A at nucleotide position 886, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.M296Nfs*7). This variant was observed as a somatic alteration in a breast tumor; functional analysis demonstrated a lack of protein expression, failure of recruitment to laser-induced DNA damage sites and lack of homologous repair activity (Castroviejo-Bermejo M et al. EMBO Mol Med, 2018 12;10:). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition to the information 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. -
