Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PP4_Moderate

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.557T>C variant in the HNF1 homeobox A gene, HNF1A, causes an amino acid change of isoleucine to threonine at codon 186 (p.(Ile186Thr)) of transcript NM_000545.8. This variant was identified in an individual with a clinical history highly specific for HNF1A-monogenic diabetes (MODY probability calculator result >50%, negative genetic testing for HNF4A, and antibody negative) (PP4_Moderate; [internal lab contributors]). This variant is located in the HNF1A DNA binding domain, but outside of the region defined as critical for the protein’s function by the ClinGen MDEP (codons 107-174 and 201-280); therefore, PM1_Supporting is not met. The gnomAD PopMax filtering allele frequency of the c.557TC meets the criteria to be classified as a variant of uncertain significance for monogenic diabetes. ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen MDEP VCEP (specification version 2.1.0, approved 8/11/23): PP4_Moderate.

Genes affected
HNF1A (HGNC:11621): (HNF1 homeobox A) The protein encoded by this gene is a transcription factor required for the expression of several liver-specific genes. The encoded protein functions as a homodimer and binds to the inverted palindrome 5'-GTTAATNATTAAC-3'. Defects in this gene are a cause of maturity onset diabetes of the young type 3 (MODY3) and also can result in the appearance of hepatic adenomas. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2015]

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:research

Mutations in HNF1A gene can predispose to MODY3. It is associated with both micro and macrovascular complications of diabetes, especially cardiovascular complications. Associated with glucosuria. May respond well to sulfonylureas. However, more evidence is required to confer the association of this particular variant rs587778396 with MODY3. -

The c.557T>C variant in the HNF1 homeobox A gene, HNF1A, causes an amino acid change of isoleucine to threonine at codon 186 (p.(Ile186Thr)) of transcript NM_000545.8. This variant was identified in an individual with a clinical history highly specific for HNF1A-monogenic diabetes (MODY probability calculator result >50%, negative genetic testing for HNF4A, and antibody negative) (PP4_Moderate; [internal lab contributors]). This variant is located in the HNF1A DNA binding domain, but outside of the region defined as critical for the protein’s function by the ClinGen MDEP (codons 107-174 and 201-280); therefore, PM1_Supporting is not met. The gnomAD PopMax filtering allele frequency of the c.557T<C variant in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.00002294, which falls between ClinGen MDEP-established cutoffs for PM2_Supporting and BS1; thus, neither criterion will be applied. This variant has a REVEL score of 0.326, which is between the ClinGen MDEP thresholds, predicting neither a damaging nor benign impact on HNF1A function. In summary, c.557T>C meets the criteria to be classified as a variant of uncertain significance for monogenic diabetes. ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen MDEP VCEP (specification version 2.1.0, approved 8/11/23): PP4_Moderate. -
