Abstract excerpt
AIMS: Genetic variation at the rs560887 locus of the glucose-6-phosphatase, catalytic 2 gene (G6PC2) is known to affect regulation of fasting glycaemia. We determined the rs560887 genotype of patients with monogenic diabetes and glucokinase gene mutations (GCK-MODY) and correlated the genotypes with HbA(1c) levels. METHODS: Patients from families with GCK-MODY were recruited from two large cohorts from Poland (n...
