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	Mendelics	May 28, 2019	- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jan 29, 2024	This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 782 of the PALB2 protein (p.Pro782Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs786203296, gnomAD 0.008%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 31451522, 34326862). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 186885). 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 with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Myriad Genetics, Inc.	May 20, 2024	This variant is considered likely benign. This variant is strongly associated with less severe personal and family histories of cancer, typical for individuals without pathogenic variants in this gene [PMID: 25085752]. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Nov 10, 2023	Variant summary: PALB2 c.2344C>T (p.Pro782Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251422 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.2344C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals with a personal or family history of PALB2-related cancer (e.g., Ebrahimi_2019, Bhai_2021, Lerner-Ellis_2021), however without strong evidence for causality (e.g., lack of co-segregation data). These reports therefore do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Prostate Cancer. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 34326862, 31451522, 32885271). Six submitters have reported clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Jun 13, 2022	Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 24485656) -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano	Apr 19, 2024	The PALB2 c.2344C>T (p.Pro782Ser) variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals/families affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMIDs: 31451522 (2019), 32885271 (2021), 34326862 (2021)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.0000071 (2/282822 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome

Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	Jan 25, 2022	This missense variant replaces proline with serine at codon 782 of the PALB2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has been identified in 2/282822 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Sep 05, 2023	The p.P782S variant (also known as c.2344C>T), located in coding exon 5 of the PALB2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2344. The proline at codon 782 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant was observed in 1/3251 individuals who met eligibility criteria for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome (Lerner-Ellis J et al. J Cancer Res Clin Oncol, 2021 Mar;147:871-879). This amino acid position is not well 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. -

The PALB2 p.Pro782Ser variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the Cosmic, MutDB, LOVD 3.0, or Zhejiang University databases. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs786203296) as "With Uncertain significance allele", and in ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by Ambry Genetics, Invitae, and GeneDx). The variant was identified in control databases in 2 of 277206 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00001 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant observed in African population in 2 of 24026 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001), while the variant was not observed in the Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, Finnish, European, Latino, Other, and South Asian populations. The p.Pro782 residue is not conserved in mammals and four out of five computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 1 of 5 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing; this is not very predictive of pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -
