NGS studies were conducted on 24 NDM children from the Oman population, and genetic abnormalities were discovered including KCNJ11 mutations and 6q24 methylation abnormalities using methylation specific PCR and polymorphic loci, as well as mutations in the GCK, LRBA, SLC2A2, and IL2RA genes in 62.5% of the patients (Al Senani et al., 2018). Here, KCNJ11 is linked to neonatal diabetes mellitus.
