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.

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu878*) in the PALB2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PALB2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17200668, 17200671, 17200672, 24136930, 25099575). 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: 484176). RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this premature translational stop signal on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (Invitae). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.E878* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.2632G>T), located in coding exon 7 of the PALB2 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 2632. This changes the amino acid from a glutamic acid to a stop codon within coding exon 7. This mutation has been detected in an individual with ovarian cancer (Koczkowska et al. Cancers (Basel) 2018 Nov;10(11). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, 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. -
