Classification rationale
Interpretation summary
Generated evidence synthesis
1
The PALB2 c.1058A>T (p.Lys353Ile) variant has been reported in ClinVar as uncertain significance by a single submitter.
2
This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD v4.1, and its gnomAD v4.1 allele frequency is therefore below the PALB2 PM2_Supporting threshold of 0.000333%.
3
PALB2-specific rules support BP1 for this missense variant, while SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact with a maximum delta score of 0.00 and PVS1, PP3, and BP4 are not applied in this missense setting.
Final determination:
Rule31 in the Richards et.al., 2015 - Combining rules v1.2.0 criteria-combination framework is satisfied by the adjudicated criteria, so the variant is classified as Uncertain Significance - Conflicting Evidence.
Criteria assessment
ACMG/AMP criteria review
Criteria shown when status is available
All criteria require review: For research and educational purposes only.
| Criterion | Status | Rationale | Evidence used |
|---|---|---|---|
| BA1 | Not met | This variant is absent from gnomAD v4.1, so the observed allele frequency is 0%, which is below the PALB2 BA1 threshold of >0.1%; BA1 is not met. |
cspec
gnomad_v4
|
| BP1 | Met | This variant is a missense substitution, and the PALB2 VCEP applies BP1 to all missense variants because truncating variants are the predominant established disease mechanism for this gene. |
cspec
|
| BP2 | N/A | BP2 is not used in the PALB2 VCEP framework for this gene, so it is not applicable to this variant. |
cspec
|
| BP3 | N/A | BP3 is not applicable because this variant is not an in-frame insertion or deletion in a repetitive region, and the PALB2 VCEP does not use BP3 for PALB2. |
cspec
|
| BP4 | N/A | SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact for this variant with a maximum delta score of 0.00, but the PALB2 VCEP does not apply BP4 to missense variants; BP4 is therefore not applicable here. |
cspec
spliceai
|
| BP5 | N/A | BP5 is not applicable because the PALB2 VCEP does not use this criterion for PALB2-related disease. |
cspec
|
| BP6 | N/A | BP6 is not used in this VCEP framework, so it is not applicable to this variant. |
cspec
|
| BP7 | N/A | BP7 is intended for synonymous or qualifying intronic variants, whereas this variant is a missense substitution; BP7 is therefore not applicable. |
cspec
|
| BS1 | Not met | This variant is absent from gnomAD v4.1, so the observed allele frequency is 0%, which is below the PALB2 BS1 threshold of >0.01%; BS1 is not met. |
cspec
gnomad_v4
|
| BS2 | Not assessed | No data were identified showing this variant in unaffected individuals under the PALB2 BS2 point-based framework, so BS2 cannot be assessed. |
cspec
|
| BS3 | N/A | BS3 is not applicable in the PALB2 VCEP framework for this variant type, and no qualifying benign functional study evidence was identified for separate use. |
cspec
|
| BS4 | Not assessed | No segregation study data or quantitative LOD/Bayes factor evidence were identified to show lack of segregation with disease, so BS4 cannot be assessed. |
cspec
|
| PM1 | N/A | PM1 is not applicable because the PALB2 VCEP does not use PM1 for PALB2 missense variants. |
cspec
|
| PM2 | Met | This variant is absent from gnomAD v4.1 and gnomAD v2.1. The observed gnomAD v4.1 allele frequency is 0%, which is below the PALB2 PM2_Supporting threshold of ≤0.000333%, so PM2_Supporting is met. |
cspec
gnomad_v4
gnomad_v2
|
| PM3 | Not assessed | No data were identified showing this variant in trans with a pathogenic PALB2 variant in an affected individual with Fanconi anemia, so PM3 cannot be assessed. |
cspec
|
| PM4 | N/A | PM4 is not applicable because this variant is not a stop-loss variant, and the PALB2 VCEP does not use PM4 for missense variants. |
cspec
|
| PM5 | N/A | PM5 is not applicable because the PALB2 VCEP does not use PM5 for missense changes; in PALB2 it is reserved for qualifying truncating or splice variants upstream of p.Tyr1183. |
cspec
|
| PM6 | N/A | PM6 is not applicable because the PALB2 VCEP does not use de novo evidence under PM6 for PALB2-related disease. |
cspec
|
| PP1 | Not assessed | No family segregation data or quantitative LOD/Bayes factor evidence were identified to show co-segregation with disease, so PP1 cannot be assessed. |
cspec
|
| PP2 | N/A | PP2 is not applicable because the PALB2 VCEP does not use PP2 for PALB2 missense variants. |
cspec
|
| PP3 | N/A | SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact for this variant with a maximum delta score of 0.00, and the PALB2 VCEP does not apply PP3 to missense variants; PP3 is therefore not applicable here. |
cspec
spliceai
|
| PP4 | N/A | PP4 is not applicable because the PALB2 VCEP does not use phenotype specificity under PP4 for PALB2-related disease in this setting. |
cspec
|
| PP5 | N/A | PP5 is not used in this VCEP framework, so it is not applicable to this variant. |
cspec
|
| PS1 | N/A | PS1 is not applicable because the PALB2 VCEP does not use PS1 for missense changes, and no splice-based PS1 evidence was identified for this variant. |
cspec
spliceai
|
| PS2 | N/A | PS2 is not applicable because the PALB2 VCEP does not use de novo evidence under PS2 for PALB2-related disease. |
cspec
|
| PS3 | N/A | PS3 is not applicable in the PALB2 VCEP framework for this variant type, and no qualifying pathogenic functional study evidence was identified for separate use. |
cspec
|
| PS4 | Not assessed | This variant has been reported in ClinVar as uncertain significance by a single submitter, but no case-control study data, odds ratio, relative risk, or qualifying statistical enrichment data were identified; PS4 cannot be assessed. |
cspec
clinvar
|
| PVS1 | N/A | This variant is a missense substitution and is not a nonsense, frameshift, or canonical ±1,2 splice variant. SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact with a maximum delta score of 0.00, and the PALB2/generic PVS1 scaffold does not support PVS1 for this variant class; PVS1 is not applicable. |
