Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
This missense variant replaces isoleucine with threonine at codon 1037 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). A functional study has shown the mutant protein to exhibit partially reduced homologous recombination activity and protein stability (PMID: 31757951). This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. 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. -
The p.I1037T variant (also known as c.3110T>C), located in coding exon 10 of the PALB2 gene, results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 3110. The isoleucine at codon 1037 is replaced by threonine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was found to be functionally normal in a DNA-repair assay (Brnich SE et al. J Mol Diagn, 2021 07;23:847-864). In a homology-directed DNA repair (HDR) assay, this alteration was found to be functionally abnormal. In a PARP inhibitor sensitivity assay, this alteration was found to be functionally inconclusive (Boonen RACM et al. Nat Commun, 2019 11;10:5296). This amino acid position is well 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:1
This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1037 of the PALB2 protein (p.Ile1037Thr). 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: 484219). 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 expected to disrupt PALB2 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on PALB2 function (PMID: 31757951, 33139182, 33964450). 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. -
