RCV002225198 | SCV002503751 | pathogenic | Maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 2 | 2022-04-22 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change is predicted to replace methionine with valine at codon 251 of the GCK protein, p.(Met251Val). The methionine residue is highly conserved (100 vertebrates, UCSC), and is located in the hexokinase 2 domain. There is a small physicochemical difference between methionine and valine. The variant is absent in a large population cohort (gnomAD v2.1), and has been identified in at least four cases with a clinical diagnosis of maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY), co-segregating with diabetes in at least two families (PMID: 20337973, 24804978, 29927023; https://doi.org/10.1093/edrv/36.supp.1). Furthermore, the cases with the variant demonstrate the stable fasting hyperglycaemia, characteristic of MODY type 2 (PMID: 24804978, 29792621). Multiple lines of computational evidence predict a deleterious effect for the missense substitution (5/6 algorithms). Additionally, a different missense involving this amino acid residue (p.Met251Ile) has been determined to be likely pathogenic (PMID: 14517946). Based on the classification scheme RMH ACMG Guidelines v1.2.1, this variant is classified as PATHOGENIC. Following criteria are met: PS4, PM2, PM5, PP1, PP3, PP4. |
