This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.661A>G variant in the glucokinase gene, GCK, causes an amino acid change of glutamic acid to lysine at codon 221 (p.(Glu221Lys)) 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 0.789, which is greater than the MDEP VCEP threshold of 0.70 (PP3). This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_Supporting). This variant is located in the larger hexokinase domain of the GCK gene (PMID:31638168) but this variant does not reside in an amino acid that directly binds glucose or ATP, which is defined as critical for the protein’s function by the ClinGen MDEP. This variant was identified in 4 unelated 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 or 2 hour OGTT glucose increment < 3 mmol/L) (PP4_Moderate; PMID:23295292, internal lab contributors). This variant has been identified in 25 unrelated individuals with hyperglycemia and segregated with the phenotype, with 17 informative meioses in at least 7 families (PS4, PP1_Strong; PMIDs: 10694920, 12955723, 31658956, 34462253, 35592779, 35733065, 23295292, and 30592380). A relative activity index (RAI) was calculated for this variant but the wild type parameters are outside of MDEP's recommendations; therefore, this data cannot be used towards PS3 (PMID:30592380). In summary, c.661A>G meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for monogenic diabetes. ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen MDEP (specification version 1.3, approved 8/11/2023): PS4, PP1_Strong, PP4_Moderate, PP2, PP3, 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]
