This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.676G>A variant in the glucokinase gene, GCK, causes an amino acid change of valine to methionine at codon 261 (p.(Val226Met)) 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 0.789, which is greater than the MDEP threshold of 0.70 (PP3). This variant has a gnomAD v2.1.1 Popmax filtering allele frequency of 0.000002920 (below the MDEP threshold of 0.000003) and ≤ 2 copies observed in the European non-Finnish population and ≤ 1 copy in any other subpopulation, thereby meeting the ClinGen MDEP criteria for PM2_Supporting (PM2_Supporting). This variant was identified in more than 70 unrelated individuals with hyperglycemia (PS4; internal lab contributors). This variant was identified in an individual with a clinical history highly specific for GCK-hyperglycemia (FBG 5.5-8 mmol/L and HbA1c 5.6 - 7.6% and negative antibodies) (PP4_Moderate; internal lab contributors). This variant segregated with diabetes/hyperglycemia with more than 20 informative meioses in more than 30 families (PP1_Strong; internal lab contributors). This variant resides in an amino acid that directly binds glucose, which is defined as critical for the protein’s function by the ClinGen MDEP (PM1). A kinetic analysis of recombinant wild-type (WT) and mutant glucokinase demonstrated that the wild-type kinetic parameters pass the quality control, the wild-type ATP Km is between 0.4-0.65, and the p.Val226Met variant has a relative activity index (RAI) of 0.009 to 0.198, which is less than the MDEP VCEP threshold of 0.50 (PS3_Moderate; PMID:10525657, 25015100, https://doi.org/10.1159/isbn.978-3-318-01080-0​). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for monogenic diabetes. ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen MDEP VCEP (specification version 1.3.0, approved 8/11/2023): PS4, PP1_Strong, PS3_Moderate, PM2_Supporting, PP2, PP4_Moderate, PP3, PM1.

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]
