Patients with hypoglycemia in infancy due to a heterozygous inactivating mutation have been reported to occasionally progress to diabetes later in life. We explored the gene responsible for diabetes in two brothers, who were suspected to have diabetes at 15 and 18 years-of-age, respectively, with whole exome sequencing, and identified a compound heterozygous AB ...[more]
