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]

Variant summary: GCK c.364-18A>G alters a non-conserved nucleotide located at a position not widely known to affect splicing. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing (TrAP). However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00031 in 250628 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0039 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 156 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in GCK causing Monogenic Diabetes phenotype (2.5e-05). c.364-18A>G has been reported in the literature in at least one individual affected with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (Stoffel_1993). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Monogenic Diabetes. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 8495817). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 514377). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -
