Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 20 ACMG points: 20P and 0B. PVS1 PM2 PP3_Moderate PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_024675.4(PALB2):c.37G>T(p.Glu13Ter) variant causes a stop gained change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. E13E) has been classified as Likely benign.

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.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 20 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant located near the start codon (<100nt), not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 637 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
• PP5: Variant 16-23641121-C-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr16-23641121-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 920082.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

clinical testing

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health

Jan 15, 2020

This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 1 of the PALB2 gene, creating a 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. -

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 920082). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 28724667). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu13*) 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). -
