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.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -9 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.4).
• BP6: Variant 16-23603651-C-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr16-23603651-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_benign]. Clinvar id is 460992.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=0.507 with no splicing effect.

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. -

The PALB2 p.Val1123= variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the following databases: MutDB, LOVD 3.0, or the Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database. The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs753357848), ClinVar (1x likely benign), and Cosmic (1x, confirmed somatic, in carcinoma of the breast). The variant was also identified in control databases in 1 of 246186 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.000004 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). Breakdown of the observations by population include South Asian in 1 of 30776 chromosomes (freq: 0.00003), while the variant was not observed in the African, Other, Latino, European, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, or Finnish populations. The p.Val1123= variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it does not result in a change of amino acid and is not located in a known consensus splice site. In addition, in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) 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 although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. -
