Abstract
Five novel GCK mutations have been identified in Chinese MODY. The defects in enzymatic activity and protein stability, together with alteration of GKRP binding on GCK mutants may synergistically contribute to the development of MODY2 hyperglycaemia. No treatment should be prescribed to MODY2 patients when insulin resistance is not present.
