## Communicated by Haig Kazazian Mutations in the homeodomain-containing transcription factor hepatocyte nuclear factor-1 β β (HNF-1 β β ) are known to cause a rare subtype of maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY5), which is associated with early-onset progressive non-diabetic renal dysfunct
One form of maturity-onset diabetes of the young, Type 3 (MODY3), results from mutations in the gene coding for hepatocyte nuclear factor-1␣ (HNF-1␣), a transcription factor first described in the liver. MODY3 is characterized by a defective glucosestimulated insulin secretion. Earlier observations
