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.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 08, 2023This sequence change results in a frameshift in the PALB2 gene (p.His1170Phefs*19). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 17 amino acid(s) of the PALB2 protein and extend the protein by 1 additional amino acid residues. This variant is present in population databases (rs587781411, gnomAD 0.1%). This frameshift has been observed in individual(s) with breast, ovarian and prostate cancer and breast cancer (PMID: 24556621, 25099575, 25225577, 26283626, 26314354, 26786923). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as c.3504_3505del. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 140978). This variant disrupts a region of the PALB2 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Y1183*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 17200671). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthDec 07, 2020This variant deletes 2 nucleotides in the last coding exon 13 of the PALB2 gene, substituting the last 17 amino acids of the protein with 18 different amino acids. This variant may also be known as c.3504_3505del. The variant impacts the C-terminus of the WD40 repeats domain, a known functional domain (PMID: 16793542, 19423707). Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been observed in individuals with personal and/or family history of breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 25099575, 25225577, 26283626, 26315354, 26786923, 29752822, 29431189, 28825143) and prostate cancer (PMID: 24556621), including one family in which the variant segregates with three first-degree relatives with early-onset or bilateral breast cancer (PMID: 25225577). This variant has been identified in 1/31326 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of PALB2 function is a known mechanism of disease. Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJan 25, 2024The c.3507_3508delTC variant, located in coding exon 13 of the PALB2 gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides at nucleotide positions 3507 to 3508, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.H1170Ffs*19). This alteration occurs at the 3' terminus of the PALB2 gene, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, alters the last 17 amino acids of the protein and results in the elongation of the protein by one amino acid. However, these 3' amino acids are part of the functionally critical WD40 domain that is necessary for PALB2 function, stability, and interaction with BRCA2 (Oliver AW et al. EMBO Rep., 2009 Sep;10:990-6). This alteration has also been reported in multiple individuals with personal and/or family history suggestive of hereditary breast, ovarian, or prostate cancer (Leongamornlert D et al. Br J Cancer. 2014 Mar 18;110(6):1663-72; Hartley T et al. Hered Cancer Clin Pract. 2014 Aug 28;12(1):19; Antoniou AC et al. N. Engl. J. Med. 2014 Aug;371(6):497-506; Ramus SJ et al. J. Natl. Cancer Inst. 2015 Nov;107(11); Thompson ER et al. Breast Cancer Res. 2015 Aug;17:111; Zhang K et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2017 Dec;166:865-873; Lee JEA et al. J.

Further, Hartley et al., reported segregation of this alteration with disease in 4 out of 5 individuals from one family. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -

The variant was absent in 251472 control chromosomes. c.3507_3508delTC has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast Cancer, Colon cancer and other unspecified cancer (Yang_2020), and segregated with disease in a British family with Breast cancer (Hartley _2014). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported.The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 25225577, 31841383). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 140978). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
