RCV000265360 | SCV000433880 | likely benign | Maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 1 | 2018-01-12 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This 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 and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as likely benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of likely benign for this disease. |

RCV000304160 | SCV000433881 | uncertain significance | Familial hyperinsulinism | 2018-01-12 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This 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. |

RCV003148709 | SCV003804582 | uncertain significance | Maturity onset diabetes mellitus in young | criteria provided, single submitter | research | 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 rs568730599 in MODY, yet. | |

RCV003330647 | SCV004038782 | benign | not specified | 2023-08-21 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Variant summary: HNF4A c.50-4700G>A is located at a position not widely known to affect splicing. 4/4 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 9.6e-05 in 251202 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 30-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in HNF4A causing Maturity Onset Diabetes Of The Young 1/Neonatal Diabetes Mellitus phenotype (3.1e-06), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.50-4700G>A in individuals affected with Maturity Onset Diabetes Of The Young 1/Neonatal Diabetes Mellitus and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Two submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. One submitter classified the variant as likely benign, and one submitter classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. |
