The possibility of linkage between the human insulin receptor gene locus and diabetes was examined in three Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetic families and one family with maturity onset diabetes of the young. Insulin receptor gene haplotypes were established using BglII, Rsal and Sstl restrict

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a hormone derived from the preproglucagon molecule that is secreted by intestinal L cells and stimulates insulin secretion from beta cells. The GLP-1 receptor is a candidate gene for diabetes mellitus, as mutations may induce the impaired insulin response that is a
The association between DNA insertion sequences located near the insulin gene and the dominantly inherited maturity-onset diabetes of young people was studied in a large family. The distribution of the restriction fragments was compatible with Mendelian segregation. However, no linkage was found bet
Members of three families with maturity onset diabetes of youth (MODY) and seven with "common" type 2 diabetes were typed for six DNA markers (H-RAS, INS, HBBC, PTH, CALC1, CAT) on the short arm of chromosome 11. Using conventional pairwise linkage analysis, close linkage in the MODY families was ex
