Description
The c.1099G>A variant in the glucokinase gene, GCK, causes an amino acid change of valine to methionine at codon 367 (p.(Val367Met)) 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 0.929, 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 7 unrelated individuals with diabetes/hyperglycemia (PS4; PMID 27256595, 31968686, 9049484, internal lab contributors). This variant segregated with diabetes with 4 informative meioses in 3 families with diabetes/hyperglycemia (PP1_Strong; PMID 27256595, 9049484, internal lab contributors). 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%) (PP4; PMID 27256595 ). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as 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, PS4, PP4, PP1_Strong.
