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.

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

This variant is denoted PALB2 c.2204C>T at the cDNA level, p.Pro735Leu (P735L) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Proline to a Leucine (CCA>CTA). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. PALB2 Pro735Leu was not observed at a significant allele frequency in 1000 Genomes. Since Proline and Leucine differ in some properties, this is considered a semi-conservative amino acid substitution. PALB2 Pro735Leu occurs at a position that is conserved across species and is not located in a known functional domain (UniProt). In silico analyses predict that this variant is probably damaging to protein structure and function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether PALB2 Pro735Leu is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -

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

The p.P735L variant (also known as c.2204C>T), located in coding exon 5 of the PALB2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2204. The proline at codon 735 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is highly 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. -

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

This missense variant replaces proline with leucine at codon 735 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). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been detected in a breast cancer case-control meta-analysis in 1/60466 cases and 2/53461 unaffected individuals (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID PALB2_010924), and this variant was found to not impact splicing (PMID: 31843900). This variant has been identified in 6/282902 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. -

Variant summary: PALB2 c.2204C>T (p.Pro735Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 251494 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.2204C>T in individuals affected with Breast Cancer and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Four ClinVar submissions (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

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

This variant is present in population databases (rs199743500, gnomAD 0.004%). This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 735 of the PALB2 protein (p.Pro735Leu). 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: 246252). 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. 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. -
