Description

The p.T696M variant (also known as c.2087C>T), located in coding exon 5 of the PALB2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2087. The threonine at codon 696 is replaced by methionine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration has been reported in individuals with a personal or family history of breast cancer (Nguyen-Dumont T et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2015 Jan;149:547-54; Decker B et al. J. Med. Genet., 2017 11;54:732-741; Lattimore V et al. Breast Cancer Res Treat, 2021 Feb;185:583-590) This variant was present in a cohort of 3,579 African males diagnosed with prostate cancer who underwent multi-gene panel testing of 19 DNA repair and cancer predisposition genes (Matejcic M et al. JCO Precis Oncol, 2020 Jan;4:32-43) but was only seen in one individual from the control group in a Japanese study of prostate cancer patients (Momozawa Y et al. J Natl Cancer Inst, 2020 Apr;112:369-376). This amino acid position is poorly 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.

Description

This missense variant replaces threonine with methionine at codon 696 of the PALB2 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual and a family affected with breast cancer (PMID: 25575445, 33113089) and in breast cancer case-control studies in 1/13824 cases and 0/5488 unaffected individuals (PMID: 28779002) and in 2/60466 cases and 4/53461 unaffected individuals (PMID: 33471991; Leiden Open Variation Database DB-ID PALB2_010449). This variant also has been reported in male breast cancer, pancreatic cancer and prostate cancer case-control studies, in which the variant is only detected in unaffected individuals and not found in cancer cases (PMID: 30287823, 31214711, 32980694). This variant has been identified in 4/251484 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.
