HNF1A (hepatocyte nuclear factor 1-alpha) is a homeodomain transcription activator, with an atypical POU-specific domain and an N-terminal dimerization domain, expressed in liver, kidney, intestine and pancreatic islets. It binds the inverted palindrome GTTAATNATTAAC as a homodimer or heterodimer with HNF1B and, together with the coactivator DCoH/PCBD1 (forming a heterotetramer), CBP/p300 and partner factors such as HNF4A, activates RNA polymerase II transcription of tissue-specific target genes, including hepatic plasma-protein and drug-metabolism genes, the renal glucose cotransporter SGLT2, and genes of beta-cell glucose metabolism and insulin secretion. Heterozygous loss-of-function variants cause maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 3 (MODY3), a primary insulin-secretion defect with low renal glucose threshold, and have been reported in some neonates with hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia; somatic biallelic inactivation causes familial and sporadic hepatocellular adenomas.

Reason: The cited paper (Oosterwegel et al. 1991) clones TCF-1, a T-lymphocyte-specific HMG-box transcription factor (TCF7), not HNF1A, which is a homeodomain protein; the annotation probably arises from the shared historical alias TCF1. The activity itself is correct for HNF1A and is supported by other annotations (e.g. PMID:12453420), but this evidence line cannot be verified as an HNF1A assay. Supporting Evidence: PMID:1989880 TCF-1 contained a single |

Download this section (compressed HTML)Q: Is neonatal hyperinsulinism a genuine feature of HNF1A haploinsufficiency, given that the cohort that established the HNF4A association found no excess neonatal hypoglycaemia in HNF1A carriers?
Experiment: Compare fetal-stage glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and HNF1A target expression in human stem-cell-derived beta cells heterozygous for HNF1A versus HNF4A loss-of-function, to test whether HNF1A haploinsufficiency can cause transient hypersecretion.
