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.

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The missense c.560C>A (p.Pro187His) variant in PALB2 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. The p.Pro187His variant has allele frequency 0.006% is novel (not in any individuals) in gnomAD Exomes and 1000 Genomes. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Likely benign / Uncertain Significance. The amino acid change p.Pro187His in PALB2 is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. The amino acid Pro at position 187 is changed to a His changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS). -

Significance:Likely benign

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

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. -
