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.

This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PALB2-related conditions. 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. Studies have shown that this variant results in activation of a cryptic splice site and introduces a premature termination codon (Invitae). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 410214). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change falls in intron 8 of the PALB2 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the PALB2 protein. RNA analysis indicates that this variant induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. -
