Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 14 ACMG points: 14P and 0B. PM1PP2PP3PP4PM2_SupportingPS4PP1_Strong

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.1240A>G variant in the glucokinase gene, GCK, causes an amino acid change of lysine to glutamic acid at codon 414 (p.(Lys414Glu)) of NM_000162.5. GCK is defined by the ClinGen MDEP as a gene that has a low rate of benign missense variation and has pathogenic missense variants as a common mechanism of disease (PP2). This variant resides in an amino acid that directly binds ATP, which is defined as critical for the protein’s function by the ClinGen MDEP (PM1), and is predicted to be deleterious by computational evidence, with a REVEL score of 0.9279, which is greater than the MDEP VCEP threshold of 0.70 (PP3). This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_Supporting), and was identified in seven unrelated individuals with non- autoimmune and non-absolute/near-absolute insulin-deficient diabetes (PS4; ClinVar ID 36188, PMID 18411240, internal lab contributors). The variant segregated with diabetes, with 5 informative meioses in three families with MODY (PP1_Strong; internal lab contributors). Additionally, one of these individuals has a clinical history highly specific for GCK-MODY (FBG 5.5-8 mmol/L and HbA1c 5.6 - 7.6%) (PP4; internal lab contributor). In summary, c.1240A>G meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic by the ClinGen MDEP (specification version 1.2.0, approved 6/7/2023): PP1_Strong, PS4, PP4, PM1, PP2, PP3, 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]
