Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 9 ACMG points: 9P and 0B. PM2_Supporting PVS1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.1155dup variant in the glucokinase gene, GCK, causes a frameshift in the protein at codon 386 in NM_000162.5, adding 72 novel amino acids before encountering a stop codon (p.(Leu386AlafsTer73)). This variant, located in biologically-relevant exon 9 of 10, is predicted to lead to nonsense mediated decay in a gene in which loss-of-function is an established disease mechanism (PVS1; PMID:19790256). This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_Supporting). In summary, c.1155dup meets the criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for monogenic diabetes. ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen MDEP (specification version 1.3.0, approved 8/11/2023): PVS1, PM2_supporting.

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]
