Neonatal diabetes–associated missense PDX1 variant disrupts chromatin association and protein-protein interaction

Abstract excerpt

PDX1 mutations are associated with multiple forms of diabetes, including syndromic, neonatal, mature onset diabetes of the young (MODY), and type 2 diabetes. Two PDX1 missense mutations (Thr151Met and Asn196Thr) were identified in a pediatric female patient that cause permanent neonatal diabetes, pancreas hypoplasia, and a malformed gallbladder. We found that the mouse Pdx1 Asn197Thr variant (homologous to human...
