Description

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.

Description

Variant summary: GCK c.1019+18G>A alters a non-conserved nucleotide located at a position not widely known to affect splicing. Three computational tools predict that the variant abolishes a cryptic 5' splicing donor site but does not affect the canonical splice site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0032 in 239030 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygote. The observed variant frequency is approximately 126-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in GCK causing Monogenic Diabetes phenotype (2.5e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. c.1019+18G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with diabetes and hyperinsulinism without evidence of cosegregation with disease (e.g. Lehto_1999, Johansen_2005, Lukasova_2008, Odem_2009, Snider_2013). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Monogenic Diabetes. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 10447526, 14517946, 15928245, 18271687, 19515026, 23275527). Four submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as benign/likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign.

Description

The c.1016+18G>A variant in GCK classified as benign because it has been identified in 0.5% (660/125912) of European chromosomes, including 2 homozygote occurences, by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). In additon, it is not located within the splice consensus sequence and computational splice prediction tools predict disruption of a cryptic splice at this position without effect on the canonical splice. It has been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 377918). ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: BS1, BP4, BP7.
