Whole-exome sequencing identifies the first French MODY 6 family with a new mutation in the NEUROD1 gene
2020
Abstract Aim The aim of the present study was to identify the affected gene in a French family with maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) using whole-exome sequencing (WES). Methods WES was performed in one patient with MODY, and candidate variants were confirmed in members of the immediate family by Sanger sequencing. Results In the proband, a new heterozygous missense mutation (c.340A>C) was identified in the NEUROD1 gene by WES analysis and confirmed by Sanger sequencing. Additional Sanger sequencing of the proband's sister and mother revealed the same heterozygous mutation. The proband and his sister displayed typical clinical characteristics of MODY, while their mother had the sa…
