• NM_000162.5:c.1358C>A

Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 9 ACMG points: 9P and 0B. PVS1 PM2_Supporting

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.1358C>A variant in the glucokinase gene, GCK, results in a premature termination at codon 453 (p.(Ser453Ter)) of NM_000162.5. While this variant, located in exon 10 of 10, is predicted to cause a premature stop codon and to escape nonsense mediated decay, it is in a functionally important region of a gene where loss-of-function is an established disease mechanism (PVS1; PMID:19790256). Additionally, this variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_Supporting). This variant was identified in an individual with diabetes/hyperglycemia; however, PP4 could not be assessed due to lack of clinical information (PMID:11508276, per author the variant was mistakenly published as Ser452X). In summary, the c.1358C>A variant meets the criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for monogenic diabetes. ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen MDEP (specification version 1.2.0, approved 6/7/2023): PVS1, PM2_Supporting.

Genes affected

GCK (HGNC:4195): (glucokinase) This gene encodes a member of the hexokinase family of proteins. Hexokinases phosphorylate glucose to produce glucose-6-phosphate, the first step in most glucose metabolism pathways. In contrast to other forms of hexokinase, this enzyme is not inhibited by its product glucose-6-phosphate but remains active while glucose is abundant. The use of multiple promoters and alternative splicing of this gene result in distinct protein isoforms that exhibit tissue-specific expression in the pancreas and liver. In the pancreas, this enzyme plays a role in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, while in the liver, this enzyme is important in glucose uptake and conversion to glycogen. Mutations in this gene that alter enzyme activity have been associated with multiple types of diabetes and hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]
