Diabetes mellitus, permanent neonatal 4	AD	Endocrine	Individuals may manifest in infancy with findings including intrauterine growth retardation, postnatal growth deficiency, and signs of diabetes mellitus (eg, hyperglycemia, glycosuria), as well as severe dehydration, and recognition can allow preventive measures related to potential sequelae, surveillance (eg, with blood glucose monitoring as well as surveillance for other common sequelae of diabetes mellitus affecting systems such as the renal and ophthalmogic systems); In the case of an acute diabetic crisis, rapid treatment (eg, with rehydration and IV insulin, transitioning to SQ insulin when stable) is indicated, though rapid-acting and (non-continuous) short-acting insulin preparations may result in severe hypoglycemia in young patients	Endocrine	815812; 288074; 381941; 6424111; 3512591; 17855560; 18451997; 18162506; 18192540; 18171712; 20301620

Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the INS gene is commonly pathogenic or not.

In the table, we include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, Mane Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equals 1. Click the count to view the source variants.

Warning: slight differences between displayed counts and the number of variants in ClinVar may occur, primarily due to (1) the application of a different transcript and/or consequence by our variant effect predictor or (2) differences in clinical significance: we classify Benign/Likely benign variants as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic variants as Likely pathogenic.

• Function: FUNCTION: Insulin decreases blood glucose concentration. It increases cell permeability to monosaccharides, amino acids and fatty acids. It accelerates glycolysis, the pentose phosphate cycle, and glycogen synthesis in liver.
• Disease: DISEASE: Hyperproinsulinemia (HPRI) [MIM:616214]: An autosomal dominant condition characterized by elevated levels of serum proinsulin-like material. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1601997, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2196279, ECO:0000269|PubMed:3470784, ECO:0000269|PubMed:4019786}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Diabetes mellitus, insulin-dependent, 2 (IDDM2) [MIM:125852]: A multifactorial disorder of glucose homeostasis that is characterized by susceptibility to ketoacidosis in the absence of insulin therapy. Clinical features are polydipsia, polyphagia and polyuria which result from hyperglycemia-induced osmotic diuresis and secondary thirst. These derangements result in long-term complications that affect the eyes, kidneys, nerves, and blood vessels. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18192540}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Diabetes mellitus, permanent neonatal (PNDM) [MIM:606176]: A rare form of diabetes distinct from childhood- onset autoimmune diabetes mellitus type 1. It is characterized by insulin-requiring hyperglycemia that is diagnosed within the first months of life. Permanent neonatal diabetes requires lifelong therapy. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17855560, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18162506}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Maturity-onset diabetes of the young 10 (MODY10) [MIM:613370]: A form of diabetes that is characterized by an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance, onset in childhood or early adulthood (usually before 25 years of age), a primary defect in insulin secretion and frequent insulin-independence at the beginning of the disease. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18162506, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18192540, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20226046, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25423173}.
