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.

Benign, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp | Apr 11, 2016 | Variant summary: The c.2816T>G variant affects a conserved nucleotide, resulting in amino acid change from Leu to Trp. 4/4 in-silico tools predict damaging outcome for this variant (SNPs&GO not captured due to low reliability index). However, these predictions have not been validated via in vitro/vivo functional studies yet. This variant is found in 130/130096 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0009993, which is about 6 times of the maximal expected frequency of a pathogenic allele (0.0001563), suggesting this variant is likely a benign polymorphism. This variant has been reported in BRCA1/2 negative BrC/OvC patients without strong evidence for causality. In multiple studies, variant was detected in cases with comparable MAF as in tested controls (Thompson_BCR_2015, Ramus_JNCI_2015, etc) suggesting lack of causative effect. Moreover, there are at least two reported pedigrees showed lack of co-segregation of variant with disease (Damiola_Breast Can Res and Treat_2015), further supporting the neural effect of this variant. In addition, two clinical laboratories via ClinVar classified this variant as benign/likely benign, and one other clinical lab and PALB2 database via ClinVar classified this variant as VUS, all without evidence to independently evaluate. Taken together, this variant was classified as Benign variant. - |

PALB2-related disorder Benign:1
Likely benign, no assertion criteria provided | clinical testing | PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences | Sep 04, 2019 | This variant is classified as likely benign based on ACMG/AMP sequence variant interpretation guidelines (Richards et al. 2015 PMID: 25741868, with internal and published modifications). - |
Fanconi anemia complementation group N Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina | Apr 27, 2017 | This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. The evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was sufficient to determine this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign. - |

Malignant tumor of breast Benign:1
Likely benign, no assertion criteria provided | clinical testing | Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System | - | The PALB2 p.Leu939Trp variant was identified in 19 of 7014 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.003) from individuals or families with and was present in 2 of 1568 control chromosomes (frequency: 0.0013) from healthy individuals (Catucci_2014_24556926, Garcia_2009_18302019, Guenard_2010_20722467, Hofstatter_2011, Rahman_2007_17200668, Tischkowitz_2012_22241545, Wong-Brown_2014_23824750, Hellebrand_2011_21618343). The variant was also identified in the following databases: dbSNP (ID: rs45478192) as “With other allele”, ClinVar (1x as benign by Ambry Genetics, 5x as likely benign by GeneDx, Invitae, Illumina Clinical Services, 5x as uncertain significance by Cancer Genetics Laboratory, Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre Study Description, Laboratory for Molecular Medicine and PALB2 database, Clinvitae (5x), LOVD 3.0 (16x) and Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database (2x). The variant was not identified in the Cosmic, or MutDB databases. The variant was identified in control databases in 271 of 276706 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.001 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency variant (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). It was observed in the following populations: African in 10 of 23938 chromosomes (freq: 0.0004), Other in 5 of 6454 chromosomes (freq: 0.0008), Latino in 22 of 34388 chromosomes (freq: 0.0006), European Non-Finnish in 215 of 126424 chromosomes (freq: 0.002), Ashkenazi Jewish in 18 of 10138 chromosomes (freq: 0.0018), European Finnish in 1 of 25770 chromosomes (freq: 0.00004), while the variant was not observed in the East Asian, and South Asian populations. The variant was also identified by our laboratory in 1 individual with breast cancer with a co-occurring pathogenic BRCA2 variant (c.755-758delACAG, p.Asp252Valfsx24), increasing the likelihood that the p.Leu939Trp variant does not have clinical significance. In one study, researchers indicate that both the leucine amino acids at positions 931 and 939 are conserved in all species, and are located in the WD40-repeat domain responsible for binding to BRCA2 and in a region that mediates the binding with RAD51. Of these two variants, only p.Leu931Arg was not annotated and not found in controls from this study or other previously published studies. The p.Leu939Trp variant is known to be relatively common in both breast cancer patients and in healthy controls thus indicating a more likely benign classification (Catucci_2014). The p.Leu939Trp residue is conserved across mammals and other organisms, and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) suggest that the variant may impact the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. - |
