Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -4 ACMG points: 1P and 5B. BP5PP2BS2

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.1386G>T variant in the glucokinase gene, GCK, causes an amino acid change of methionine to isoleucine at codon 462 (p.(Met462Ile)) 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 has a REVEL score of 0.45, which is between the ClinGen MDEP thresholds, predicting neither a damaging nor benign impact on GCK function. This variant was identified in an individual with diabetes; however, PP4 is unable to be evaluated due to insufficient clinical information (internal lab contributors). This variant was identified in at least 5 unrelated individuals with non-autoimmune and non-absolute/near-absolute insulin-deficient diabetes; however, PS4 cannot be applied because the variant MAF in gnomAD is above the ClinGen MDEP PM2_Supporting cutoff (internal lab contributors). This variant was identified in at least two individuals with a normal fasting glucose (BS2) (PMID:24097065). The Popmax filtering allele frequency of the c.1386G>T variant in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.00001159, which falls between ClinGen MDEP-established cutoffs for PM2_Supporting (0.000003) and BS1 (0.00004); thus, neither criterion will be applied. Lastly, this variant was identified in a patient with an alternate molecular basis for disease (BP5; internal lab contributors). In summary, c.1386G>T meets the criteria to be classified as likely benign for monogenic diabetes. ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen MDEP (specification version 1.3.0, approved 8/11/2023): PP2, BP5, BS2.

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]

Maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 2 Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submittercurationBroad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and HarvardJan 22, 2020The p.Met462Ile variant in GCK has not been previously reported in individuals with maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) type 2 but has been identified in 0.004028% (5/124138) of European (non-Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs193922285). This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (VariationID: 36202) as a VUS by Athena Diagnostics Inc and as likely pathogenic by Integrated Genetics; the former lab also reported one individual with the variant and MODY type 2. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Met462Ile variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: BS1 (Richards 2015). -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaApr 27, 2017This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJan 24, 2019Variant summary: The variant, GCK c.1386G>T (p.Met462Ile) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Hexokinase, C-terminal domain of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The ExAC z score of 4.39 for this gene is indicative of it being relatively intolerant to benign missense variation. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.1e-05 in 237788 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. The variant, c.1386G>T has been reported in the literature in at-least two individuals affected with MODY or Type 2 Diabetes (Maturity-onset diabetes of the young, type 2, Osbak_2009, Framingham Heart Study cohort, Flannick_2013). These reports however, does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with MODY2. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation and classified the variant as uncertain significance. This variant was previously classified as a VUS-possibly pathogenic variant that was converted during ClinVar submission to likely pathogenic in 2011. As summarized above, at-least two new reports indicating its presence in individuals diagnosed with MODY2 or a related diabetic phenotype have emerged since its original classification.Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -
