Abstract
► GCK-MODY mutations S263P and G264S cause reduced GK catalytic activity (S263P < G264S). ► The mutations cause misfolded proteins (S263P > G264S). ► The mutant proteins self-associate (G264S > S263P) and form homodimers/aggregates. ► Prevention of self-association may represent new therapeutic approach.
