Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PP2PM2_SupportingPP4_ModeratePS4PP1_Strong

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.787T>C variant in the glucokinase gene, GCK, causes an amino acid change of serine to proline at codon 263 (p.(Ser263Pro)) of NM_000162.5. This variant was identified in at least 14 unrelated individuals with hyperglycemia (PS4; PMID:32074423, internal lab contributors). This variant has a gnomAD v4.1.0 Grpmax filtering allele frequency of 2.80e-7, which is below the threshold for PM2_Supporting (Grpmax FAF <= 0.000003) (PM2_Supporting). This variant segregated with diabetes/hyperglycemia, with at least 21 informative meioses in 9 families (PP1_Strong; PMID:32074423, internal lab contributors). 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 was identified in an individual with a clinical history highly specific for GCK-hyperglycemia (fasting glucose 5.5-8 mmol/L and HbA1c 5.6 - 7.6% and antibody negative) (PP4_Moderate; internal lab contributors). This variant has a REVEL score of 0.689, which is between the ClinGen MDEP thresholds for BP4 and PP3, predicting neither a damaging nor benign impact on GCK function. The relative activity index (RAI) of this variant was above the MDEP cutoff of 0.5, and while the variant appears to result in thermal instability, the relative stability index was not calculated, therefore PS3_Supporting will not be applied (PMID:16731834).In summary, c.787T>C meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for monogenic diabetes. ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen MDEP (specification version 2.0.0, approved 2/17/2025): PS4, PM2_Supporting, PP1_Strong, PP2, PP4_Moderate.

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]
