DNA insertion sequences near the insulin gene are not associated with maturity-onset diabetes of young people.
The association between DNA insertion sequences located near the insulin gene and the dominantly inherited maturity-onset diabetes of young people was studied in a large family. The distribution of the restriction fragments was compatible with Mendelian segregation. However, no linkage was found between the DNA insertion sequences and this form of diabetes.
