OMIM: 606176
Orphanet: ORPHA99885, ORPHA79134

Targets

Kir6.2
Role:  Disregulation of insulin secretion by pancreatic β cells due to decreased sensitivity of KATP channels to ATP inhibiton.
Drugs:  Sulfonylureas, particularly glibenclamide
Side effects:  Diarrhoea during transfer from insulin to sulfonylurea treatment.
Therapeutic use:  PNDM due to most KCNJ11 mutations.
References:  1-3
Mutations:  Kir6.2 is associated with 17 mutation. Click here for details
ATP-binding cassette, sub-family C (CFTR/MRP), member 8
Glucokinase
