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

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 10 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 5 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 7 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 chr7-44153435-A-G is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 4262524.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 274 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 10 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 3.069 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 2.7821 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to transient neonatal diabetes mellitus, monogenic diabetes, permanent neonatal diabetes mellitus 1, diabetes mellitus, noninsulin-dependent, maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 2, hyperinsulinism due to glucokinase deficiency, permanent neonatal diabetes mellitus, maturity-onset diabetes of the young.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.893
• PP5: Variant 7-44153435-A-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-44153435-A-C is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 36250.

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 25 of the GCK protein (p.Leu25Arg). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GCK-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 36250). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. 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. -
