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.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health | Aug 20, 2019 | This missense variant replaces tryptophan with leucine at codon 1159 of the PALB2 protein. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses are inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function. 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 not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has not been identified 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 submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Nov 05, 2023 | The p.W1159L variant (also known as c.3476G>T), located in coding exon 13 of the PALB2 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 3476. The tryptophan at codon 1159 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with similar properties. In a homology-directed DNA repair (HDR) and PARP inhibitor sensitivity assays, this alteration was found to be functionally normal (Boonen RACM et al. Nat Commun, 2019 11;10:5296). This amino acid position is highly 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. - |
Familial cancer of breast Uncertain:1Benign:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp | Jul 31, 2023 | 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. An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 460996). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PALB2-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1159 of the PALB2 protein (p.Trp1159Leu). - |
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Myriad Genetics, Inc. | May 16, 2024 | This variant is considered likely benign. This variant has been observed in trans with a known pathogenic variant in one or more individuals lacking clinical features consistent with gene-specific recessive disease. - |
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp | Jun 12, 2023 | Variant summary: PALB2 c.3476G>T (p.Trp1159Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the WD40 domain (IPR031920) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 251480 control chromosomes (gnomAD v2.1, Exomes dataset). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.3476G>T in individuals affected with Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome has been reported. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function and found no damaging effect of this variant on homologous recombination or in a PARP inhibitor sensitivity assay (e.g., Boonen_2019). The following publication was ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 31757951). Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, and all laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. - |
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | GeneDx | Mar 21, 2023 | Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Published functional studies demonstrate: protein production, homologous recombination efficiency, and sensitivity to PARP inhibition to proliferation similar to wildtype (Boonen et al., 2019); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 24485656, 19609323, 20871615, 28152038, 31757951) - |
