Here, we validated and improved their specificity by performing a comprehensive bioinformatics analysis combined with experimental and clinical data on a model of glucokinase (GCK): 8835 putative variations, including 515 disease-associated variations from 1596 families with diagnoses of monogenic diabetes (GCK-MODY) or persistent hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia of infancy (PHHI), and 126 variations with available or newly reported (19 variations) data on enzyme kinetics. Here, GCK is linked to congenital isolated hyperinsulinism.
