Abstract excerpt
In the large-scale Munich N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU) mouse mutagenesis project murine models recapitulating human diseases were generated. In one strain, a novel missense mutation (D217V) in the glucokinase (Gck) gene was identified, resulting in decreased glucokinase activity. Heterozygous muta...
