Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is an autosomal dominant form of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus caused by mutations in at least 13 different genes. The hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-1α gene is affected in the most common form (HNF1A-MODY [MODY3]). CASE PRESENTATION: We describe the co-inheritance of a novel heterozygous missense mutation c.1761C > G (p.Pro588Ala) with a novel...
