Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_024675.4(PALB2):c.3004_3007del(p.Glu1002ThrfsTer4) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000343 in 1,459,852 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. E1002E) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

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.

Familial cancer of breast Pathogenic:3
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMyriad Genetics, Inc.Sep 14, 2023This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant creates a frameshift predicted to result in premature protein truncation. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJul 28, 2023For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 187120). This variant is also known as p.E1002Tfs*4. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with prostate cancer (PMID: 26485759). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu1002Thrfs*4) in the PALB2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PALB2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17200668, 17200671, 17200672, 24136930, 25099575). -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMay 04, 2022The c.3004_3007delGAAA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the PALB2 gene, results from a deletion of 4 nucleotides at positions 3004 to 3007, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.E1002Tfs*4). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthMar 12, 2021This variant deletes 4 nucleotides in exon 10 of the PALB2 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. To our knowledge, this variant has been reported in an individual affected with prostate cancer (PMID: 26485759). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of PALB2 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
