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.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Mar 07, 2024 | The p.M1? variant (also known as c.1A>G) is located in coding exon 1 of the PALB2 gene and results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1. This alters the methionine residue at the initiation codon (ATG). This variant was identified in an individual with a personal history of breast cancer as part of a large Canadian cohort study of 2870 individuals Bhai et al. Front Genet. 2021 Jul;12:698595). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, sequence variations that modify the initiation codon are expected to result in either loss of translation initiation, N-terminal truncation, or cause a shift in the mRNA reading frame. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. - |
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health | Oct 26, 2021 | This variant results in the loss of the translation initiation codon (methionine at codon 1) of the PALB2 gene. This variant is expected to disrupt the expression of the full-length PALB2 protein. If the next in-frame methionine at codon 296 is used as an alternate translation initiation codon, the resulting protein would be 25% shorter than the wild type protein and lack the coiled-coil domain (p.Leu9-Glu42) that mediates the interaction between PALB2 and BRCA1 (PMID: 19369211, 25099575) and, therefore, is critical for homology-directed repair (PMID: 16793542, 19369211). Although, to our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant, it is expected to disrupt PALB2 protein function. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature, but two different nucleotide substitution variants affecting the translation initiator methionine have been identified in individuals with breast and pancreatic cancer (PMID: 31173646, 31871297). This variant has been identified in 1/246052 chromosomes 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 Likely Pathogenic. - |
Familial cancer of breast Pathogenic:2
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Myriad Genetics, Inc. | Sep 06, 2023 | This variant is considered likely pathogenic. This variant is located within the gene translation start codon (p.Met1?) and is predicted to result in abnormal protein translation. - |
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Invitae | Aug 04, 2023 | This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the PALB2 mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 296. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of the initiator codon has been observed in individual(s) with bile duct cancer, breast cancer, glioblastoma multiforme, and/or pancreatic cancer (PMID: 29625052, 31173646, 31263571, 31871297). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 246182). If translation initiation is rescued by the downstream methionine at codon 296, this would result in loss of the coiled-coil domain (p.Leu9-Glu42) of the PALB2 protein, which is critical for the interaction between BRCA1/BRCA2, and necessary for homology-directed DNA repair (PMID: 16793542, 19369211, 26649820, 25099575). This variant disrupts a region of the PALB2 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Leu35Pro) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 28319063, 30337689, 31586400). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. - |
