Description

The PALB2 c.509_510delGA (p.Arg170IlefsTer14) variant results in frameshift and is predicted to result in premature truncation of the protein. The p.Arg170IlefsTer14 variant is reported in at least six studies in which it is found in a heterozygous state in a total of 23 breast cancer patients, two ovarian cancer patients and one pancreatic cancer patient (Dansonka-Mieszkowska et al. 2010; Slater et al. 2010; Casadei et al. 2011; Bogdanova et al. 2011; Adank et al. 2011; Noskowicz et al. 2014). This variant has not been reported in individuals with Fanconi anemia. The p.Arg170IlefsTer14 variant was found in a heterozygous state in one of 5097 controls and is reported at a frequency of 0.00010 in the European (non-Finnish) population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium. The variant creates a premature stop codon which shortens the PALB2 protein to 182 amino acids from 1186 amino acids. This removes the C-terminal domain which contains the WD40 repeats necessary for BRCA2/PALB2 complex formation. Other deletion variants that remove the C-terminal domain of the PALB2 protein have been shown to have highly reduced BRCA2 binding capacity and be defective in the repair of ds breaks and mitomyocin C-induced damages. To date, all PALB2 variants detected in families with breast cancer or Fanconi anemia have been frameshift or nonsense changes leading to a truncated protein. Based on the evidence and the potential impact of frameshift variants, the p.Arg170IlefsTer14 variant is classified as pathogenic for PALB2-related disorders. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population.

Description

The PALB2 c.509_510delGA variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Arg170Ilefs*14). This variant has been reported in multiple unrelated individuals with breast and/or ovarian cancer (see for example - Dansonka-Mieszkowska et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20122277; Casadei et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21285249; Cybulski et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25330149). This variant is reported in 0.0070% of alleles in individuals of European (non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD and is interpreted as pathogenic in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/126757/). Frameshift variants in PALB2 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic.
