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

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.01993822 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3.6, offset of 10, new splice context is: gttttcacatactgaaacAGcag. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP5
Variant 16-23629276-C-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr16-23629276-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 126657.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr16-23629276-C-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpAug 10, 2023This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 5 of the PALB2 gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and likely results in a shortened protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer and/or pancreatic cancer (PMID: 19264984, 21285249). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 126657). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on protein structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that disruption of this splice site affects PALB2 function (PMID: 30890586). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in skipping of 6, but is expected to preserve the integrity of the reading-frame (PMID: 21285249, 26990772, 30890586; Invitae). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 27, 2020The c.2515-1G>T intronic variant results from a G to T substitution one nucleotide upstream from coding exon 6 of the PALB2 gene. This alteration has been detected in patients with familial pancreatic cancer and familial breast cancer (Jones S et al. Science, 2009 Apr;324:217; Casadei S et al. Cancer Res., 2011 Mar;71:2222-9; Antoniou AC et al. N. Engl. J. Med., 2014 Aug;371:497-506). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. Using the BDGP and ESEfinder splice site prediction tools, this alteration is predicted to abolish the native splice acceptor site. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Ambry internal data). Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as likely pathogenic. -
