Ambry Genetics RCV000164203 SCV000214824 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-03-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.72delG pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 2 of the PALB2 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 72, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.R26Gfs*7). This alteration has been reported in a familial breast and pancreatic cancer kindred (Peterlongo P et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2011 Apr;126:825-8). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, 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.
Invitae RCV000114655 SCV000826868 pathogenic Familial cancer of breast 2023-12-26 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg26Glyfs*7) 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). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 21184274, 25099575). This variant is also known as Leu24fs. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 126766). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000164203 SCV001342842 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-05-06 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant deletes 1 nucleotide in exon 2 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. This variant has been reported in several individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 21184274, 25099575), including one proband with strong family history (PIMD: 21184274). 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.
