Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 26 ACMG points: 26P and 0B. PS1_Very_Strong PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Strong PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000162.5(GCK):​c.214G>C​(p.Gly72Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 13/21 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Another nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as Pathogenicin ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G72E) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 26 ACMG points.

• PS1: Transcript NM_000162.5 (GCK) is affected with MISSENSE_VARIANT having same AA change as one Pathogenic present in ClinVar as 36209
• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 3 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 4 uncertain in NM_000162.5
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr7-44152419-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 1338215.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_pathogenic=1, Uncertain_significance=1}.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.995
• PP5: Variant 7-44152420-C-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-44152420-C-G is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 976334.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 72 of the GCK protein (p.Gly72Arg). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal dominant maturity-onset diabetes of the young (PMID: 10447526, 12442280, 30259503, 30447144, 30663027, 31216263; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 976334). 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 expected to disrupt GCK protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Studies have shown that this missense change alters GCK gene expression (PMID: 16731834, 17389332). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
