Description

The c.3048delT pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the PALB2 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 3048, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.F1016Lfs*17). This alteration has been reported in an African American woman diagnosed with invasive breast cancer at age 60 who also had a family history of pancreatic cancer (Zheng Y et al. Cancer 2012;118:1362-70). This variant was also reported in an African American woman with triple negative breast cancer diagnosed over the age of 45 (Churpek JE et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2015 Jan;149:31-9). 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.

Description

This variant deletes 1 nucleotide 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, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast or ovarian cancer (PMID: 21932393, 25428789, 27153395, 30128536, 30287823). In a breast cancer case-control study, this variant was identified in 1/7051 female breast cancer cases and was absent in any controls (PMID: 30287823). This variant has been identified in 1/246228 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 Pathogenic.
