Familial cancer of breast Pathogenic:3
This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 11 of the PALB2 gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted 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 gastric cancer, renal cell carcinoma, and uveal melanoma (PMID: 28024868, 32081490). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 141501). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site alters mRNA splicing and is expected to lead to the loss of protein expression (PMID: 34846068; Invitae). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
This variant is considered likely pathogenic. This variant occurs within a consensus splice junction and is predicted to result in abnormal mRNA splicing of either an out-of-frame exon or an in-frame exon necessary for protein stability and/or normal function.
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
​The c.3201+1G>T intronic variant results from a G to T substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 11 of the PALB2 gene. Another alteration at this position, c.3201+1G>C (reported as c.3202+1G>C), has been described in a patient with a personal history of contralateral breast cancer and family history of breast cancer in a first-degree relative (Tischkowitz M et al. Hum. Mutat. 2012 Apr;33(4):674-80). The c.3201+1G>T variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the following databases: Database of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (dbSNP), NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP) and 1000 Genomes Project. To date, this alteration has been detected with an allele frequency of approximately 0.01% (greater than 10000 alleles tested) in our clinical cohort (includes this individual). Based on nucleotide sequence alignment, this 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 donor site; however, direct evidence is unavailable. Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice donor site are typically deleterious in nature (ACMG Recommendations for Standards for Interpretation and Reporting of Sequence Variations. Revision 2007. Genet Med. 2008;10:294). As such, the c.3201+1G>T variant is classified as likely pathogenic.
