Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 13 ACMG points: 13P and 0B. PP2PP3PM2_SupportingPP4_ModeratePS4PP1_Strong

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.1142T>C variant in the glucokinase gene, GCK, causes an amino acid change of methionine to threonine at codon 381 (p.(Met381Thr)) 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 is predicted to be deleterious by computational evidence, with a REVEL score of 0.93, which is greater than the MDEP VCEP threshold of 0.70 (PP3). While studies exploring the effect of this variant on protein function have been performed, these studies do not meet the criteria set forth by the MDEP for the application of PS3 or BS3 (PMID:30257192). This variant is absent in gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_Supporting), and was identified in at least 18 unrelated individuals with non- autoimmune and non-absolute/near-absolute insulin-deficient diabetes (PS4; PMID 30257192, internal lab contributors). At least 5 of these individuals have a clinical history highly specific for GCK-MODY (FBG 5.5-8 mmol/L and HbA1c 5.6 - 7.6% and negative antibodies) (PP4_Moderate; internal lab contributors). Additionally, this variant segregated with diabetes, with at least 16 informative meioses in 6 families with MODY (PP1_Strong; PMID 30257192, internal lab contributors). In summary, the c.1142T>C variant meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for monogenic diabetes. ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen MDEP (specification version 1.2.0, approved 6/7/2023): PP1_Strong, PP4_Moderate, PS4, 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]

This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 381 of the GCK protein (p.Met381Thr). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with maturity onset diabetes of the young (PMID: 19790256, 30257192). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2574163). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt GCK protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GCK function (PMID: 30257192). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
