Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -5 ACMG points: 0P and 5B. BP4BS1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.427-5C>T variant in the hepatocyte nuclear factor-4-alpha gene, HNF4A, is located in the non-canonical splice acceptor region five base pairs upstream of the intron 4/ exon 4 splice junction of NM_175914.5. This variant has a Popmax Filtering allele frequency in gnomAD 2.1.1 of 0.00006366, which is greater than the MDEP threshold for BS1 (0.000033) (BS1). The computational splicing predictor SpliceAI gives a score of 0.00 for acceptor loss/gain, suggesting that the variant has no impact on splicing. In summary, c.427-5C>T meets the criteria to be classified as likely benign for monogenic diabetes. ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen MDENmP (specification version 1.0.0, approved 11/16/2022): BP4, BS1.

Genes affected
HNF4A (HGNC:5024): (hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 alpha) The protein encoded by this gene is a nuclear transcription factor which binds DNA as a homodimer. The encoded protein controls the expression of several genes, including hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 alpha, a transcription factor which regulates the expression of several hepatic genes. This gene may play a role in development of the liver, kidney, and intestines. Mutations in this gene have been associated with monogenic autosomal dominant non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus type I. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants encoding several different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2012]

Submissions by phenotype

Familial hyperinsulinism Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 13, 2018This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

Maturity onset diabetes mellitus in young Benign:1
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterresearchClinical Genomics, Uppaluri K&H Personalized Medicine Clinic-Potent mutations in HNF4A are associated with poor insulin secretion in response to hyperglycemia. Associated with MODY1. Patients initially respond well to sulfonylureas but eventually become insulin dependent. However, more evidence is required to ascertain the role of this particular variant rs374703326 in MODY, yet. -
