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.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJun 15, 2023Variant summary: PALB2 c.3331C>G (p.Pro1111Ala) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Partner and localiser of BRCA2, WD40 domain (IPR031920) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 251456 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.3331C>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Breast Cancer (Dorling_2021), however, this report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. One publication using mouse embryonic stem cells lacking Palb2 reported that complementation with the human P111A-PALB2 was able to rescue homologous recombination and confer PARPi resistance similar to levels seen with human wildtype-PALB2, with 102.61% and 87.51% relative activity, respectively (Boonen_2019). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 31757951, 33471991). Six ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014: all have classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthNov 08, 2020This missense variant replaces proline with alanine at codon 1111 of the PALB2 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have shown that this variant resulted in normal repair activity in mouse cells (PMID: 31757951). To our knowledge, this variant has been reported in an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 29522266). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsAug 24, 2023The p.P1111A variant (also known as c.3331C>G), located in coding exon 12 of the PALB2 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 3331. The proline at codon 1111 is replaced by alanine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration was detected in 1/5589 German BRCA1/2-negative probands with breast cancer (Hauke J et al. Cancer Med. 2018 04;7:1349-1358). In one functional study, this variant did not significantly impair homologous recombination efficiency compared to wild-type, and was classified as a variant of uncertain significance by the authors (Boonen RACM et al. Nat Commun. 2019 11;10:5296). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Familial cancer of breast Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 06, 2023This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1111 of the PALB2 protein (p.Pro1111Ala). 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: 219647). 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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect PALB2 function (PMID: 31757951). 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. -
