Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PP2PP3

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.646G>A variant in the glucokinase gene, GCK, causes an amino acid change of glutamic acid to lysine at codon 216 (p.Glu216Lys) of NM_000162.5. This variant is predicted to be deleterious by computational evidence, with a REVEL score of 0.711, which is greater than the MDEP VCEP threshold of 0.70 (PP3). Additionally, 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). The Popmax filtering allele frequency of the c.646G>A variant in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.00001897 (East Asian), which falls between ClinGen MDEP-established cutoffs for PM2_Supporting (0.000003) and BS1 (0.00004); thus, neither criterion will be applied. In summary, c.646G>A meets the criteria to be classified as a variant of uncertain significance for monogenic diabetes. ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen MDEP (specification version 1.2.0, approved 6/7/2023): PP3, PP2.

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]
