Currently known MODY subtypes are caused by dominantly acting heterozygous mutations in 11 genes that are crucial for the development or function of pancreatic‐β‐cells, namely HNF4A, GCK, HNF1A, PDX1, HNF1B, NEUROD1, KLF11, CEL, PAX4, INS, BLK, ABCC8, KCNJ11 and APPL1.7 Here, GCK is linked to MODY.
