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.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jan 21, 2024	This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 991 of the PALB2 protein (p.Val991Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs765175665, 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: 231886). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on PALB2 protein function. 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. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome

Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	May 05, 2024	The p.V991F variant (also known as c.2971G>T), located in coding exon 9 of the PALB2 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 2971. The valine at codon 991 is replaced by phenylalanine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been reported in at least one breast cancer patient in a study of 13087 breast cancer cases and 5488 control individuals in the UK (Decker B et al. J Med Genet, 2017 11;54:732-741). This amino acid position is poorly 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	Dec 08, 2020	This missense variant replaces valine with phenylalanine at codon 991 of the PALB2 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast or ovarian cancer (PMID: 28779002). This variant has been identified in 1/251468 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. -

Variant summary: PALB2 c.2971G>T (p.Val991Phe) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the WD40 domain (IPR031920) of the encoded protein sequence. Three 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 251468 control chromosomes. 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.2971G>T in individuals affected with Breast Cancer and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

This variant is denoted PALB2 c.2971G>T at the cDNA level, p.Val991Phe (V991F) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Valine to a Phenylalanine (GTC>TTC). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. PALB2 Val991Phe was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Since Valine and Phenylalanine differ in some properties, this is considered a semi-conservative amino acid substitution. PALB2 Val991Phe occurs at a position that is not conserved across species and is located within the third WD repeat region, the region required for interaction with POLH and POLH DNA synthesis stimulation, and the region that interacts with RAD51 and BRCA2 (UniProt). In silico analyses are inconsistent regarding the effect this variant may have on protein structure and function. Based on currently available information, it is unclear whether PALB2 Val991Phe is pathogenic or benign. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
