Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 14 ACMG points: 14P and 0B. PS3_Supporting PP2 PP3 PM2_Supporting PP4_Moderate PS4 PP1_Strong

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.214G>A variant in the glucokinase gene, GCK causes an amino acid change of glycine to arginine at codon 72 (p.(Gly72Arg)) 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 also predicted to be deleterious by computational evidence, with a REVEL score of 0.994, which is greater than the MDEP VCEP threshold of 0.70 (PP3). This variant has an incomputable gnomAD v2.1.1 Popmax minor filtering allele frequency due to 0 copies in the European non-Finnish subpopulation and 1 copies in the African/African American subpopulation, thereby meeting the ClinGen MDEP threshold criteria for PM2_Supporting (ENF Popmax FAF <= 0.000003 and <= 2 copies in ENF and <=1 copy in any other subpopulation) (PM2_Supporting). This variant was identified in 48 unrelated individuals with diabetes/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 OGTT increment < 3 mmol/L) (PP4_Moderate, internal lab contributors). This variant segregated with diabetes/hyperglycemia with 23 informative meioses in multiple families (PP1_Strong; internal lab contributors). A kinetic analysis of recombinant wild-type (WT) and mutant glucokinase demonstrated that the wild-type kinetic parameters passed the quality control, the wild-type ATP Km was between 0.4-0.65, the p.Gly72Arg had a relative activity index (RAI) > 0.5 and a relative stability index (RSI) <=0.5 (PS3_Supporting; PMID:25015100). In summary, c.214G>A meets the criteria to be classified as Pathogenic for monogenic diabetes. ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen MDEP VCEP (specification version 1.2.0, approved 8/11/2023): PS4, PP1_Strong, PP4_Moderate, PS3_Supporting, PM2_Supporting, 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]
