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

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 16-23629870-G-GAGCAAGTTGGGGTGTGC is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr16-23629870-G-GAGCAAGTTGGGGTGTGC is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 245890.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Submissions by phenotype

Familial cancer of breast Pathogenic:3

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Myriad Genetics, Inc.	Sep 12, 2023	This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant creates a frameshift predicted to result in premature protein truncation. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Dec 24, 2023	This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.His762Alafs*8) in the PALB2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PALB2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17200668, 17200671, 17200672, 24136930, 25099575). This variant is present in population databases (rs755471995, gnomAD 0.0009%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PALB2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 245890). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	May 04, 2023	This variant inserts 17 nucleotides in exon 5 of the PALB2 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature, but it has been detected in an individual affected with breast cancer (Color internal data). This variant has been identified in 1/251484 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of PALB2 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Jul 19, 2021	The c.2267_2283dup17 variant, located in coding exon 5 of the PALB2 gene, results from a duplication of GCACACCCCAACTTGCT at nucleotide position 2267, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.H762Afs*8). This variant was reported in 0/60,466 breast cancer cases and in 1/53,461 controls (Dorling et al. N Engl J Med. 2021 02;384:428-439). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
