Abstract excerpt
PALB2 (partner and localizer of BRCA2) gene encodes a protein that colocalizes with BRCA2 in nuclear foci and likely permits the stable intranuclear localization and accumulation of BRCA2PALB2 plays a critical role in maintaining genome integrity through its role in the Fanconi anemia and homologous recombination DNA repair pathways. It has a known loss-of-function disease mechanism. Biallelic PALB2 pathogenic...
