Description

The p.G1021R variant (also known as c.3061G>A), located in coding exon 10 of the PALB2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 3061. The glycine at codon 1021 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This alteration was identified in 1/1240 probands from the Breast Cancer Family Registry who had previously screened negative for BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations (Nguyen-Dumont T et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat., 2015 Jan;149:547-54). This alteration was also found to be functional in a homology-directed DNA repair (HDR) assay (Wiltshire T et al. Genet. Med., 2020 Mar;22:622-632). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.

Description

This missense variant replaces glycine with arginine at codon 1021 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 the mutant protein to exhibit 80% of wild-type activity in a homology-directed repair assay (PMID: 31636395). This variant has been reported in an individual affected with pancreatic cancer (PMID: 33127389). This variant has been identified in 2/251450 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.
