Description

The c.509_510delGA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 4 of the PALB2 gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides at nucleotide positions 509 to 510, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.R170Ifs*14). This alteration has been reported in familial breast, ovarian, and pancreatic cancer cohorts with carrier ethnicity data supporting c.509_510delGA as a founder mutation of central European origin (Dansonka-Mieszkowska A et al. BMC Med. Genet. 2010 Feb;11:20; Slater EP et al. Clin. Genet. 2010 Nov;78:490-4; Casadei S et al. Cancer Res. 2011 Mar;71:2222-9; Noskowicz M et al. Fam. Cancer. 2014 Jun;13:137-42; Cybulski C et al. Clin. Genet. 2015 Oct;88:366-70; Desmond A et al. JAMA Oncol. 2015 Oct;1:943-51; Kluska A et al. BMC Med. Genomics. 2017 Mar;10:14). Additional data has led authors to suggest that this is one of two PALB2 founder mutations associated with poor outcome in Polish breast cancer patients (Cybulski C et al. Lancet Oncol. 2015 Jun;16:638-44). Further, a functional characterization of this alteration showed that the truncated protein results in weakly bound DNA substrates, suggesting that the loss of the second DNA binding domain affects the affinity for DNA, resulting in significantly impaired DNA binding (Pauty J et al. Nucleic Acids Res. 2017 Mar;45:2644-2657). 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 2 nucleotides in exon 4 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. A functional study reported that this variant impacts PALB2 binding to DNA (PMID: 28158555). This variant has been detected in over 40 individuals affected with breast, ovarian and pancreatic cancer (PMID: 20122277, 20412113, 20582465, 21285249, 24136930, 24061862, 25099575, 25186627, 26270727, 27106063, 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID PALB2_010036). This variant has been identified in 9/251446 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.

Description

This mutation is a 2 bp deletion at codon 509 of the PALB2 gene. It results in a frame-shift creating new stop codon 14 amino acid residues later, thus resulting in absent or disrupted protein product. Truncating variants in PALB2 are known to be pathogenic. This particular truncation has been reported in the literature in association with familial breast and pancreatic cancers (PMID: 20412113; PMID: 21285249). The mutation database ClinVar contains multiple entries for this variant (Variation ID: 126757).
