Genes affected
INS (HGNC:6081): (insulin) This gene encodes insulin, a peptide hormone that plays a vital role in the regulation of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. After removal of the precursor signal peptide, proinsulin is post-translationally cleaved into three peptides: the B chain and A chain peptides, which are covalently linked via two disulfide bonds to form insulin, and C-peptide. Binding of insulin to the insulin receptor (INSR) stimulates glucose uptake. A multitude of mutant alleles with phenotypic effects have been identified, including insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, permanent neonatal diabetes diabetes mellitus, maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 10 and hyperproinsulinemia. There is a read-through gene, INS-IGF2, which overlaps with this gene at the 5' region and with the IGF2 gene at the 3' region. [provided by RefSeq, May 2020]

Uncertain risk allele, criteria provided, single submitterresearchClinical Genomics, Uppaluri K&H Personalized Medicine Clinic-Potent mutations in the INS gene can cause early onset diabetes mellitus which is insulin dependent. May have poor response to sulfonylureas, mutations in this gene can cause beta cell destruction.Sufficient evidence is found to confer the association of this particular R6H/rs121908259 with Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY). -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 05, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 6 of the INS protein (p.Arg6His). This variant is present in population databases (rs121908259, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal dominant maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY) or type 2 diabetes (PMID: 20007936, 24097065, 29758564). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 68727). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Not Available"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available". The histidine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects INS function (PMID: 20007936, 24770419). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
INS-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesApr 12, 2023The INS c.17G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg6His. This variant has been reported in individuals with Maturity Onset Diabetes of the Young (MODY) (Meur et al 2010. PubMed ID: 20007936; de Santana et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31595705). In vitro function studies indicate that this variant leads to impaired preproinsulin translocation across the endoplasmic reticulum membrane and accumulation of untranslocated preproinsulin in cytosol (Guo H et al 2014. PubMed ID: 24770419). However, another study showed that secretion of this mutant protein was not significantly different from wild type (Meur et al 2010. PubMed ID: 20007936). This variant is reported in 0.032% of alleles i n individuals of African descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/11-2182185-C-T). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
