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]

This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 220 of the HNF4A protein (p.Val220Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs202105574, gnomAD 0.005%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with HNF4A-related conditions (PMID: 26552609, 30586318, 31291970). This variant is also known as c.724G>A (p.Val242Met). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 562363). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on HNF4A protein function. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

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 rs202105574 in MODY, yet. -
