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:2

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jan 10, 2020	For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Loss-of-function variants in PALB2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17200668, 24136930, 25099575). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with PALB2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 229757). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu181*) in the PALB2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Myriad Genetics, Inc.	Sep 06, 2023	This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant creates a termination codon and is predicted to result in premature protein truncation. -

The p.E181* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.541G>T), located in coding exon 4 of the PALB2 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 541. This changes the amino acid from a glutamic acid to a stop codon within coding exon 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. -
