The following missense mutants of BRCA1, reported in cancer, contain mutations in the second coiled coil domain, essential for binding to PALB2 (residues 1397-1424). They have been shown to be impaired in their ability both to bind to PALB2 and to rescue the gene conversion defect associated with BRCA1 depletion:
BRCA1 M1400V (Sy et al. 2009: partial loss of function)
BRCA1 L1407P (Sy et al. 2009); this mutation has also been modelled in mice, recapitulating the human Fanconi anemia phenotype (Park et al. 2020)
BRCA1 M1411T (Sy et al. 2009).

BRCA1 single nucleotide variants located in splicing regulatory regions have the potential to disrupt mRNA splicing and generate frameshift or in-frame proteins lacking functional domains. In this sense, several BRCA1 splicing mutations have been identified in hereditary breast/ovarian cancer cases and predicted to produce non-functional proteins that would lack the coiled-coil and BRCT domains. All variants are derived from ClinVar database (Landrum et al. 2018) and have been classified as pathogenic by expert panels. Variants are listed below and annotated according to the reference transcript NM_007294, but their annotation at the protein level is currently outside the scope of Reactome database:

Many nonsense and frameshift mutants of BRCA1 reported in cancer result in prematurely truncated proteins. These mutant proteins resemble the synthetic BRCA1 fragment consisting of amino acids 1-1314, which is unable to interact with PALB2 (Sy et al. 2009). These BRCA1 truncation mutants are likely impaired in some of the other steps of DNA double-strand break repair (DSBR) that precede PALB2 binding but their effect on DSBR has not been comprehensively tested.

The following functionally uncharacterized nonsense mutants of BRCA1 , derived from COSMIC database (Forbes et al. 2017), which are truncated before the amino acid position 1314, have been annotated as candidates:
