Monogenic Diabetes VCEP
The c.232C>T variant in the hepatocyte nuclear factor 4-alpha gene, HNF4A, causes an amino acid change of arginine to tryptophan at codon 78 (p.Arg78Trp) of NM_175914.5. This variant has a Grpmax filtering allele frequency of 0.0000069 in gnomAD v4.1.0, which falls between ClinGen MDEP-established cutoffs for PM2_Supporting and BS1; thus, neither criterion will be applied. This variant was identified in 2 unrelated individuals with non-autoimmune and non-absolute/near-absolute insulin-deficient diabetes; however, PS4_Moderate cannot be applied because the number of cases is less the MDEP threshold for PS4_Moderate and the variant does not meet PM2_Supporting (PMID: 21105941, internal lab contributors). This variant is located within the DNA binding domain (codons 37-113) which is defined as critical for the protein’s function by the ClinGen MDEP (PM1_Supporting). This variant is predicted to be deleterious by computational evidence, with a REVEL score of 0.832, which is greater than the MDEP VCEP threshold of 0.70 (PP3). This variant was identified in an individual with diabetes; however, the MODY probability is unable to be calculated due to lack of clinical information and age of diagnosis over 35 (internal lab contributors). In summary, c.232C>T 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 (specification version 3.0.0, approved 6/30/2025): PM1_Supporting, PP3.
Met criteria codes
PP3
This variant is predicted to be deleterious by computational evidence, with a REVEL score of 0.832, which is greater than the MDEP VCEP threshold of 0.70 (PP3).

Not Met criteria codes
BS1
No code specific comments provided, please refer to the summary above or general recommendations provided in the guideline
PS4
This variant was identified in 2 unrelated individuals with non-autoimmune and non-absolute/near-absolute insulin-deficient diabetes; however, PS4_Moderate cannot be applied because the number of cases is less the MDEP threshold of 4 cases for PS4_Moderate.
PP4
This variant was identified in an individual with diabetes; however, the MODY probability is unable to be calculated due to lack of clinical information and age of diagnosis over 35 (internal lab contributors).
PM2
This variant has a Grpmax filtering allele frequency of 0.0000069 in gnomAD v4.1.0, which falls between ClinGen MDEP-established cutoffs for PM2_Supporting and BS1; thus, neither criterion will be applied.
