Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 3 ACMG points: 3P and 0B. PM2PP3
The NM_024675.4(PALB2):c.2882T>C(p.Leu961Pro) variant causes a missense change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. L961L) has been classified as Benign.

Familial cancer of breast Uncertain:2
This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with PALB2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 186824). This sequence change replaces leucine with proline at codon 961 of the PALB2 protein (p.Leu961Pro). The leucine residue is moderately conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between leucine and proline. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). Experimental studies have shown that this variant affects PALB2 protein function (PMID: 31757951). 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:1
The p.L961P variant (also known as c.2882T>C), located in coding exon 9 of the PALB2 gene, results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 2882. The leucine at codon 961 is replaced by proline, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant was found to be functionally abnormal in a homology-directed DNA repair (HDR) assay, a PARP inhibitor assay, and a RAD51 foci assay (Boonen RACM et al. Nat Commun, 2019 11;10:5296). This alteration was detected in 1/5589 German BRCA1/2-negative probands with breast cancer (Hauke J et al. Cancer Med, 2018 Apr;7:1349-1358). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
