Abstract excerpt
AIMS: The aim of this study was to clarify the genetic background of a family with multiple cases of diabetes accompanied by absolute insulin deficiency using whole-exome sequencing (WES).

We focused on variants that were predicted to be disease-causing by bioinformatics and were...
