Using next-generation sequencing technology, targeted sequencing of coding regions and adjacent splicing sites of MODY-associated genes (HNF4A, GCK, HNF1A, PDX1, HNF1B, NEUROD1, KLF11, CEL, PAX4, INS, BLK, KCNJ11, ABCC8, and APPL1) was carried out in 285 probands. This evidence concerns the gene PDX1 and MODY.
