Description

This sequence change deletes one nucleotide in exon 4 of the PALB2 mRNA (c.1592delT), causing a frameshift at codon 531. This creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu531Cysfs*30) and is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PALB2 are known to be pathogenic. This particular variant has been reported in an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 22241545). It has also been reported as a common cause of breast and ovarian cancer in the Finnish population (PMID: 17287723, 18628482, 19383810). Experimental studies using carrier lymphoblastoid cell lines have shown that although this variant does not lead to nonsense mediated decay, the resultant truncated PALB2 protein is unstable, with only 10% being retained (PMID: 24153426). Also, this variant protein showed a reduced ability to bind BRCA2 and failed to support homologous recombination or to restore crosslink repair in PALB2-knockdown cells (PMID: 17287723, 26640152). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
