Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 11 ACMG points: 12P and 1B. PS3PP5_Very_StrongBP4

The NM_024675.4(PALB2):​c.3350+5G>A variant causes a splice region, intron change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000821 in 1,461,520 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 1/1 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV000186838: RNA analysis showed skipping of coding exon 12 (Mori M et al. Haematologica. 2019 Oct" and additional evidence is available in ClinVar.

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 was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 11 ACMG points.

PS3
PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV000186838: RNA analysis showed skipping of coding exon 12 (Mori M et al. Haematologica. 2019 Oct;104:1962-1973). RNA studies have demonstrated this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Ambry internal data).; SCV001358405: Four RNA studies have reported aberrant mRNA transcripts in variant carriers and in one minigene splicing assay that are predicted to disrupt the BRCA2 and RAD51 binding domain in the protein (PMID: 30792206, 30890586, 32133419, 32238468, 34846068).; SCV000633424: Studies have shown that this variant results in the generation of two aberrant transcripts, one that leads to out-of-frame exon 12 skipping and the other that leads to the in-frame skipping of exons 11 and 12 together and introduces a new termination codon (PMID: 30890586, 32133419; internal data).; SCV004043220: mRNA analysis has demonstrated abnormal mRNA splicing occurs [PMID: 30792206, 32133419, 34846068].; SCV002074502: Experimental evidence from multiple studies demonstrate that this variant affects mRNA splicing leading to aberrant transcripts, most significantly to skipping of exon 12 (Karam_2019, Lopez-Perolio_2019, Mori_2019, Landrith_2020). The predicted protein encoded by this transcript is unlikely to be functional, as it lacks part of the C-terminal WD40 beta-propeller domain that mediates PALB2 interaction with several key homologous recombination proteins, including BRCA2 and RAD51 (Lopez-Perolio_2019, Landrith_2020).; SCV005347930: RNA studies indicate this variant causes exon 12 skipping (Mori et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30792206; Lopez-Perolio et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30890586; Valenzuela-Palomo et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 34846068).; SCV005623228: Assessment of experimental evidence suggests this variant results in abnormal RNA splicing, causing skipping of exon 12 (PMID: 30792206 (2019), 34846068 (2022)) or skipping of exons 11 and 12 (PMID: 30890586 (2019)).; SCV005909261: Functional analysis using RT-PCR and RNA sequencing revealed that this variant causes abnormal splicing, resulting in two distinct transcripts: one with exon 12 skipping and another with exon 11 and 12 skipping. The exon 11 and 12 skipping transcript causes an in-frame deletion of 78 amino acids (N1039-G1116) within the WD40 repeats domain of PALB2, which is critical for binding with RAD51C, RAD51, and BRCA2 in homologous recombination repair (Kang et al., 2024; PMID: 39999518).
PP5
Variant 16-23607859-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr16-23607859-C-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 142586.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.32). . Strength limited to SUPPORTING due to the PP5.
