The PALB2 c.2863dup (p.(Ser955LysfsTer2)) variant has not been observed in somatic cancers in COSMIC and is absent from ClinVar.
clinvar ↗This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1, gnomAD v4.1, and gnomAD-Canada, placing the observed population frequency at 0%, below the PALB2 PM2_Supporting threshold of 0.000333% in gnomAD v4.
cspec ↗ gnomad_v2 ↗ gnomad_v4 ↗ gnomad_canada ↗Published PALB2 studies and the expert-panel specification support loss of function as an established disease mechanism for PALB2-related cancer predisposition, and this duplication is predicted to cause an early truncating frameshift, p.(Ser955LysfsTer2).
cspec ↗ PMID:18053174 ↗ PMID:28779002 ↗ PMID:28858227 ↗SpliceAI predicts no significant splice impact for this variant, with a maximum delta score of 0.01, supporting interpretation of the primary effect as a truncating frameshift rather than an alternative splice-driven event.
