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.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsNov 09, 2023The p.E180K variant (also known as c.538G>A), located in coding exon 4 of the PALB2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 538. The glutamic acid at codon 180 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with similar properties. In a study of 68 non-Jewish women from Israel diagnosed with breast or ovarian cancer, this alteration was detected and classified as a variant of unknown significance in one Muslim woman. Specific details about her clinical history were not provided (Zidan J et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat., 2017 Dec;166:881-885). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 09, 2023This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 180 of the PALB2 protein (p.Glu180Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs750782778, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 28828701). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 186268). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. 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. -
