Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 21 ACMG points: 21P and 0B. PM3 PP2 PP3 PS3_Moderate PM2_Supporting PP4_Moderate PS4 PS2 PP1_Strong

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.781G>A variant in the glucokinase gene, GCK, causes an amino acid change of glycine to arginine at codon 261 (p.(Gly261Arg)) 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 predicted to be deleterious by computational evidence, with a REVEL score of 0.914, which is greater than the MDEP 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 copy in the "Other" subpopulation, thereby meeting the ClinGen MDEP threshold criteria for PM2_Supporting (ENF Popmax FAF less than or equal to 0.000003 and <= 2 copies in ENF and <=1 copy in any other subpopulation) (PM2_Supporting). This variant was identified in more than 38 unrelated individuals with diabetes (PS4; PMIDs: 29417725, 33324081, 21518409, 25015100, 22611063, 17573900, internal lab contributors). This variant was identified in at least two individuals with a clinical history highly specific for GCK-hyperglycemia (FBG 5.5-8 mmol/L and HbA1c 5.6 - 7.6% and negative antibodies) (PP4_Moderate, internal lab contributors). This variant segregated with diabetes/hyperglycemia with 30 informative meioses in 18 families (PP1_Strong; PMID 33324081, 21518409, internal lab contributors). This variant was identified as a de novo occurrence with confirmed parental relationships in one individual with a clinical picture consistent with GCK-hyperglycemia (PS2; internal lab contributors). This variant has been detected in at least 2 individuals with neonatal diabetes who were both homozygous for the variant, confirmed in trans (PM3: PMID 33324081, 25015100, internal lab contributors). A kinetic analysis of recombinant wild-type (WT) and mutant glucokinase demonstrated that the wild-type kinetic parameters pass the quality control, the wild-type ATP Km is between 0.4-0.65, and the p.Gly261Arg variant has a relative activity index (RAI) of 0.02, which is less than the MDEP VCEP threshold of 0.50 (PMID:19903754). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for monogenic diabetews. ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen MDEP VCEP (specification version 1.3.0, approved 8/11/2023): PM2_Supporting, PP2, PP3, PP4_Moderate, PS3_Moderate, PM3, PP1_Strong, PS4, PS2.

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]
