This variant segregates with disease in multiple families with clinical features of MODY (PMID: 21437567, 22291974, 22493702) and was also identified in one individual with PNDM (PMID: 26123671). This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Assessment of experimental evidence suggests this variant results in abnormal protein function. Studies show this variant reduces glucokinase activity (PMID: 22291974, 22493702). -
Published functional studies demonstrate kinetic inactivation with a decreased rate of catalysis and reduced affinity for glucose (Garca-Herrero et al., 2012; Valentnov et al., 2012); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Missense variants in this gene are often considered pathogenic (HGMD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 22291974, 17573900, 16965331, 30663027, 31216263, 33294763, 33565752, 32041611, 28726111, 34789499, Mustafa_2019[Article], 34746319, 26123671, 22493702, 21437567, 11508276) -
This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 223 of the GCK protein (p.Gly223Ser). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal dominant GCK-related conditions (PMID: 21437567, 31216263, 32041611, 33294763, 33565752). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 435306). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) 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: 22291974, 22493702). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Maturity onset diabetes mellitus in young Pathogenic:2
The p.Gly222Ser variant in GCK has been reported in the heterozygous state in at least 7 individuals with MODY and segregated with disease in 10 affected individuals from 1 family (Valentinova 2012 PMID 22493702, Capuano 2012 PMID 22761713, Delvecchio 2014 PMID 25414397, Antosik 2016 PMID 26123671, Aloi 2017 PMID 28726111, Scully 2020 PMID 33294763). It was also identified in 1/1111930 European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org, v4.0). This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID 435306). In vitro functional studies, computational prediction tools, and conservation analyses support that this variant may impact the protein (Valentinova 2012 PMID 22493702). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant MODY. ACMG/AMP Criteria Applied: PS4, PP1_Strong, PM2_Supporting, PP3, PS3_Supporting. -
The p.G223S pathogenic mutation (also known as c.667G>A), located in coding exon 6 of the GCK gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 667. The glycine at codon 223 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with similar properties. This mutation has been identified in numerous individuals ith maturity-onset diabetes of the young, segregating with disease (Osbak KK et al. Hum. Mutat., 2009 Nov;30:1512-26; Borowiec M et al. Acta Diabetol, 2011 Sep;48:203-8; García-Herrero CM et al. PLoS ONE, 2012 Jan;7:e30518; Valentínová L et al. PLoS ONE, 2012 Apr;7:e34541; Capuano M et al. PLoS ONE, 2012 Jun;7:e38906). This mutation was also identified in a compound heterozygous infant with persistent neonatal diabetes (Borowiec M et al. Acta Diabetol, 2011 Sep;48:203-8; Antosik K et al. Acta Diabetol, 2016 Apr;53:337-8). In addition, a GST fusion protein with this alteration expressed in E. coli demonstrated activity levels <10% of wild type with altered kinetics (García-Herrero CM et al. PLoS ONE, 2012 Jan;7:e30518). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

GCK-related disorder Pathogenic:1
The GCK c.667G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Gly223Ser. This variant has been reported to be causative for maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY) due to impaired kinetic characteristics of glucokinase (Borowiec et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21437567; García-Herrero et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22291974). This variant has not been reported in a large population database, indicating this variant is rare. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
Monogenic diabetes Pathogenic:1
Variant summary: GCK c.667G>A (p.Gly223Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Hexokinase, C-terminal domain (IPR022673) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 251410 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.667G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (Valentnov_2012, Garcia-Herrero_2012, Delvecchio_2014). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function and variant effect results in <10% of normal activity (Garcia-Herrero_2012). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 11508276, 16965331, 17573900, 25414397, 22291974, 22493702). Six submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
