Abstract excerpt
The PALB2 protein is essential to RAD51-mediated homologous recombination (HR) repair. Germline monoallelic PALB2 pathogenic variants confer significant risks for breast cancer. However, the majority of PALB2 variants remain classified as variants of unknown significance (VUS). We aim to functionally and mechanistically evaluate three novel PALB2 VUS. Patient-derived lymphoblastoid cell lines containing the VUS...
