Ambry Genetics | RCV000454132 | SCV000538158 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2023-05-03 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.V919I variant (also known as c.2755G>A), located in coding exon 8 of the PALB2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 2755. The valine at codon 919 is replaced by isoleucine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been reported in the literature in an Australian familial breast cancer cohort (Thompson ER et al. Breast Cancer Res. 2015 Aug;17:111). This alteration was also found to be functionally normal in a homology-directed DNA repair (HDR) assay (Wiltshire T et al. Genet Med, 2020 03;22:622-632). Additionally, this variant was reported in 4/60,466 breast cancer cases and in 2/53,461 controls (Dorling et al. N Engl J Med. 2021 02;384:428-439). This amino acid position is highly 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. |

RCV000454132 | SCV000685975 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2022-12-22 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This missense variant replaces valine with isoleucine at codon 919 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). A functional study has shown that this variant has neutral impact on homology-directed DNA repair activity (PMID: 31636395). This variant has been detected in a breast cancer case-control meta-analysis in 4/60466 cases and 2/53461 unaffected individuals (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID PALB2_010695). This variant has been identified in 4/249880 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. |
Invitae | RCV000211057 | SCV000757149 | uncertain significance | Familial cancer of breast | 2024-01-31 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 919 of the PALB2 protein (p.Val919Ile). This variant is present in population databases (rs775193384, gnomAD 0.004%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PALB2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 225856). 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%. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on PALB2 function (PMID: 31636395, 35762214). 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. |
