Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 7 ACMG points: 7P and 0B. PM5PP2PP3PM2_SupportingPP4_Moderate

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.1113C>G variant in the glucokinase gene, GCK, causes an amino acid change of cysteine to tryptophan at codon 371 (p.(Cys371Trp)) of NM_000162.5. GCK is defined by the ClinGen MDEP VCEP as a gene that has a low rate of benign missense variation and where pathogenic missense variants are a common mechanism of disease (PP2). This variant is predicted to be deleterious by computational evidence, with a REVEL score of 0.891, 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 was identified in an individual with a clinical history highly specific for GCK-hyperglycemia (FBG 5.5-8 mmol/L and HbA1c 5.6 - 7.6% and OGTT increment < 3 mmol/L and a 3-generation family history of diabetes) (PP4_Moderate; internal lab contributors). This variant was identified in three unrelated individuals with a clinical picture consistent with monogenic diabetes; however, PS4_Moderate cannot be applied because this number is below the MDEP threshold (internal lab contributors). This variant segregated with diabetes with one informative meiosis in a single family; however, this does not meet the thresholds for PP1 set by the ClinGen MDEP (PMID:27236918; internal lab contributors). Another missense variant, c.1112G>T p.(Cys371Phe), has been interpreted as pathogenic by the ClinGen MDEP VCEP and p.Cys371Trp has a greater Grantham distance. (PM5). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for monogenic diabetes. ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen MDEP VCEP (specification version 1.2.0 approved 6/7/2023): PP2, PP3, PM2_Supporting, PP4_Moderate, PM5 .

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]
