An imprinted locus associated with transient neonatal diabetes mellitus
Abstract
Recently, we reported the localization of a gene for transient neonatal diabetes mellitus (TNDM), a rare form of childhood diabetes, to an approximately 5.4 Mb region of chromosome 6q24. We have also shown that TNDM is associated with both paternal uniparental disomy (UPD) of chromosome 6 and paternal duplications of the critical region. The sequencing of P1-derived artificial chromosome clones from within the region of interest has allowed us to further localize the gene and to investigate the methylation status of the region. The gene is now known to reside in a 300-400 kb region of 6q24 which contains several CpG islands. At one island we have demonstrated differential DNA methylation between patients with paternal UPD of chromosome 6 and normal controls. In addition, two patients with TNDM, in whom neither paternal UPD of chromosome 6 nor duplication of 6q24 have been found, show a DNA methylation pattern identical to that of patients with paternal UPD of chromosome 6. Control individuals show a hemizygous methylation pattern. These results show that TNDM can be associated with a methylation change and identify a novel methylation imprint on chromosome 6 associated with TNDM.
