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.

Familial cancer of breast Pathogenic:3

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Baylor Genetics	Aug 28, 2022	- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Sep 04, 2016	For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. While this particular variant has not been reported in the literature, loss-of-function variants in PALB2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 25099575, 17200668). This sequence change deletes 2 nucleotides from exon 4 of the PALB2 mRNA (c.953_954delGT), causing a frameshift at codon 318. This creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser318Ilefs*2) and is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Myriad Genetics, Inc.	Sep 07, 2023	This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant creates a frameshift predicted to result in premature protein truncation. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	Jan 15, 2020	This variant deletes 2 nucleotides in exon 4 of the PALB2 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of PALB2 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Dec 21, 2016	The c.953_954delGT pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 4 of the PALB2 gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides at nucleotide positions 953 to 954, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.S318Ifs*2). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
