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:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Sep 18, 2017	This variant is denoted PALB2 c.1471G>C at the cDNA level, p.Ala491Pro (A491P) at the protein level, and results in the change of an Alanine to a Proline (GCT>CCT). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. PALB2 Ala491Pro was observed at an allele frequency of 0.08% (9/11576) in individuals of Latino ancestry in large population cohorts (NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, The 1000 Genomes Consortium 2015, Lek 2016). Since Alanine and Proline differ in some properties, this is considered a semi-conservative amino acid substitution. PALB2 Ala491Pro occurs at a position that is not conserved and is not located in a functional domain. In silico analyses predict that this variant is unlikely to alter protein structure or function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether PALB2 Ala491Pro is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano	Mar 06, 2024	The PALB2 c.1471G>C (p.Ala491Pro) variant has been reported in the published literature in an individual with breast cancer (PMID: 31206626 (2019)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00043 (15/34578 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome

Uncertain:1Benign:1

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Apr 12, 2023	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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	Jan 07, 2021	This missense variant replaces alanine with proline at codon 491 of the PALB2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has been identified in 15/251402 chromosomes 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. -

Oct 03, 2022

The PALB2 c.1471G>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ala491Pro. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.043% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/16-23646396-C-G) and is interpreted as a Variant of Uncertain Significance in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/182789/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 491 of the PALB2 protein (p.Ala491Pro). This variant is present in population databases (rs577969558, gnomAD 0.04%). 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: 182789). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt PALB2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -
