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.

Familial cancer of breast Uncertain:3Benign:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingBaylor GeneticsFeb 27, 2024- -
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMyriad Genetics, Inc.Mar 30, 2023This variant is considered likely benign. This variant is strongly associated with less severe personal and family histories of cancer, typical for individuals without pathogenic variants in this gene [PMID: 25085752]. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 29, 2024This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 439 of the PALB2 protein (p.Gly439Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs537258442, gnomAD 0.008%). 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: 188096). 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%. 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. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:3
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthApr 18, 2022This missense variant replaces glycine with valine at codon 439 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 0/60463 cases and 1/53461 unaffected individuals (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID PALB2_010728). This variant has been identified in 3/281264 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 28, 2023The p.G439V variant (also known as c.1316G>T), located in coding exon 4 of the PALB2 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 1316. The glycine at codon 439 is replaced by valine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant has been reported in 1/1120 pediatric cancer patients who underwent whole genome sequencing and/or whole-exome sequencing; this patient was diagnosed with retinoblastoma (Zhang J et al. N Engl J Med, 2015 Dec;373:2336-2346). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoOct 07, 2022The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000011 (3/281264 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in a large breast cancer association study in an unaffected individual (PMID: 33471991 (2021), https://databases.lovd.nl/shared/variants/PALB2). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded conflicting predictions that this variant is benign or damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
not specified Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpApr 07, 2023Variant summary: PALB2 c.1316G>T (p.Gly439Val) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 249874 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1316G>T has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with retinoblastoma (Zhang_2015). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Nine clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
