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.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 873 of the PALB2 protein (p.Ser873Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs587782387, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with pancreatic adenocarcinoma and/or triple-negative breast cancer (PMID: 25452441, 28767289). This missense change has been observed to be homozygous, hemizygous or homoplasmic in an individual who did not have the expected clinical features for that genetic result (internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 142328). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) 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. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces serine with arginine at codon 873 of the PALB2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in at least 3 individuals affected with breast cancer, one individual affected with pancreatic cancer with family history of breast cancer and one unaffected individual (PMID: 25452441, 28767289, 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID PALB2_010315). This variant has been identified in 1/251486 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. -

Significance:Likely benign

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: PALB2 c.2619T>G (p.Ser873Arg) 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 allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251486 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.2619T>G has been observed in individuals affected with breast cancer or pancreatic cancer without evidence of cosegregation with disease (e.g., Couch_2015, Shindo 2017, Dorling_2021). These reports 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. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 25452441, 28767289, 33471991). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 142328). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Familial ovarian cancer

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method:clinical testing

The PALB2 p.Ser873Arg variant was identified in 1 of 3648 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.000) from American individuals with triple negative breast cancer (Couch 2015). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs587782387) â€šÃ„ÃºWith Uncertain significance alleleâ€šÃ„Ã¹, ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by Ambry Genetics, Invitae and Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano), Clinvitae (2x), but was not identified in the Cosmic and Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database. The variant was identified in control databases in 1 of 246262 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.000004 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). Breakdown of the observations by population include European Non-Finnish in 1 of 111714 chromosomes (freq: 0.000009), and not observed in the African, Other, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, European Finnish, and South Asian populations. The p.Ser873 residue is conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein; this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 3 of 5 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing. However, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -
