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 Uncertain_significance. Variant got 0 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.11227703).

Submissions by phenotype

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Dec 18, 2022	The p.E820K variant (also known as c.2458G>A), located in coding exon 5 of the PALB2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 2458. The glutamic acid at codon 820 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. 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 05, 2023	This missense variant replaces glutamic acid with lysine at codon 820 of the PALB2 protein. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may not impact the protein function. Computational splicing tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional assays have not been performed for this variant nor has this variant been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has been identified in 1/251470 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). 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. -

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences

May 25, 2023

The PALB2 c.2458G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Glu820Lys. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.00088% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/16-23641017-C-T). This variant is classified as uncertain in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/574699/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Jul 26, 2023

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 820 of the PALB2 protein (p.Glu820Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs772048795, 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: 574699). 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) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt 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. -
