The NM_000162.5(GCK):c.571C>T (p.Arg191Trp) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a cumulative frequency of 0.0000109 (AC=16) in the gnomAD database across 1,461,634 control chromosomes (no homozygotes observed). The grpmax filtering allele frequency (95% CI) is 0.00000575. In-silico predictor (REVEL) classifies this variant as likely damaging/oncogenic. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic (★★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV000576488: Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect on protein activity and stability (Wang et al., 2019);" and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. A different missense at the same amino acid position has been reported as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic in ClinVar: p.R191Q: Pathogenic (ClinVar VariationId 283358, 3 stars) Other variants at the same amino acid position have been reported in ClinVar (not pathogenic): p.R191G: Uncertain_significance (ClinVar VariationId 804850, 1 star); p.R191L: Uncertain_significance (ClinVar VariationId 4747570, 1 star); p.R191= (synonymous): Likely_benign (ClinVar VariationId 4761929, 1 star) This exact variant is curated in the UniProt human variants database as Uncertain Significance; it is also listed as a COSMIC curated somatic variant.

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]

Classification according to ACMG Germline Pathogenicity v2019

Classification was made for transcript:

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 22 points.

PS3Functional studies show damaging effect
Well-established functional study supports damaging effect (PS3); SCV000576488: Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect on protein activity and stability (Wang et al., 2019);; SCV000613442: Assessment of experimental evidence suggests this variant results in abnormal protein function. The variant results in reduced enzyme activity compared to the wild type (PMID: 30592380).; SCV005185836: "In addition, at least one publication reported experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, demonstrating that the variant resulted in reduced enzyme activity compared to the wild type (Wang_2019)."
PM1Mutational hot spot or critical domain
Missense neighbourhood hotspot (≥2 P/LP within ±8 AA, OR ≥ 5 vs. background) — PM1; In-domain: 0 pathogenic, 0 benign rare missense variants.; ±8 AA neighbourhood: 15 pathogenic, 0 benign (OR vs. background: 155.0).
PM2Absent/extremely low in population databases
Very rare in gnomAD for AD/XL gene (popmax AF < threshold/10) — PM2; GnomAD popmax AF = 0.00000575 — very rare for AD+AR gene (threshold 0.0001) — PM2 moderate.
PM5Novel missense at known pathogenic residue
Different pathogenic missense at same AA residue in ClinVar (PM5); ClinVar contains a germline Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic entry at the same amino acid position with a different amino acid change: p.R191Q: Pathogenic (ClinVar VariationId 283358, 3 stars); Other variants at the same amino acid residue (not pathogenic): p.R191G: Uncertain_significance (ClinVar VariationId 804850, 1 star); p.R191L: Uncertain_significance (ClinVar VariationId 4747570, 1 star); p.R191= (synonymous): Likely_benign (ClinVar VariationId 4761929, 1 star)
PP3Computational evidence supports damaging effect
Germline meta computational scorer (REVEL/MetaRNN/BayesDel) predicts damaging effect — strong evidence (PP3); Splicing verdict: not pathogenic.; Germline computational verdict: pathogenic (Strong).
PP5Reputable source reports pathogenic
ClinVar ≥3 stars pathogenic — very strong (PP5); ClinVar submissions overwhelmingly pathogenic (≥10 total, ≥80% P/LP, <10% B/LB) — strong (PP5, count-based); ClinVar germline classification: Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic, 3 star(s). ClinVar submissions strongly and reliably favor pathogenicity (14/14 total P/LP).
