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.

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 04, 2015This 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. -

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJan 07, 2019Variant summary: PALB2 c.2673C>T alters a non-conserved nucleotide resulting in a synonymous change. 4/5 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.4e-05 in 246260 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.2673C>T has been reported in the literature in 8 Japanese female Breast Cancer cases, however it was also found in 27 healthy Japanese controls (Momozawa 2018). Co-occurrences with other pathogenic variant(s) have been reported (BRCA2 c.9076C>T, p.Q3026X in an internal LCA sample), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. Four 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 likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
