Genes affected

ABCC8 (HGNC:59): (ATP binding cassette subfamily C member 8) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the superfamily of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. ABC proteins transport various molecules across extra- and intra-cellular membranes. ABC genes are divided into seven distinct subfamilies (ABC1, MDR/TAP, MRP, ALD, OABP, GCN20, White). This protein is a member of the MRP subfamily which is involved in multi-drug resistance. This protein functions as a modulator of ATP-sensitive potassium channels and insulin release. Mutations in the ABCC8 gene and deficiencies in the encoded protein have been observed in patients with hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia of infancy, an autosomal recessive disorder of unregulated and high insulin secretion. Mutations have also been associated with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus type II, an autosomal dominant disease of defective insulin secretion. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2020]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Counsyl	Aug 02, 2017	- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	Sep 13, 2018	The ABCC8 c.3989-3C>G variant is an intronic variant that occurs in a splice region that has been reported in a compound heterozygous state with a missense variant in one individual with hyperinsulinism (Nestorowicz et al. 1998). This individual's unaffected father, who had no history of neonatal hypoglycemia, was also heterozygous for the c.3989-3C>G variant, which was also referred to as c.3992-3C>G. This variant was absent from 100 control individuals and is not reported in the 1000 Genomes Project, Exome Sequencing Project, Exome Aggregation Consortium, or Genome Aggregation Database despite its location in a region of good sequencing coverage. Functional studies have not been conducted to determine the consequences of this variant. The evidence for this variant is limited. The c.3989-3C>G variant is thus classified as a variant of uncertain significance but suspicious for pathogenicity for hyperinsulinism. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -

Mutations in ABCC8 gene are associated with both neonatal diabetes mellitus as well as MODY. Patients with this mutation may have a better response to sulfonylureas. However, no sufficient evidence is found to ascertain the role of this particular variant (rs1324242791) in MODY yet. -

Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports a deleterious effect on splicing; Functional studies were performed for this variant in the presence of two polymorphisms on the same allele (in cis); therefore, the effect of this variant alone could not be fully assessed (Saint-Martin et al., 2021); Also known as c.3992-3C>G; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25525159, 9618169, 21851374, 20685672, 32027066, 9648840, 18767144, 33410562, 11697420) -
