The commonest type of single gene diabetes was originally classified clinically as 'maturity onset diabetes of the young' (MODY). This is a form of young-onset diabetes (typically diagnosed under 25) that is not insulin-dependent and is inherited. Since 1992, mutations in six genes have been found to cause MODY, most cases involving the enzyme glucokinase or one of three gene-regulatory proteins: hepatic nuclear factor-1a (HNF-1a), HNF-4a and HNF-1b.
In a few cases, patients with diabetes caused by mutations in the hepatocyte nuclear factor la (HNF-1α) gene
Of the six MODY genes identified over the past few years, one of the genes, MODY3, is by far the most common. In fact the MODY3 mutations in a gene called Hnf-1a are the most common of all genetic (monogenic) causes of diabetes
If you or someone in your family has Type 1 diabetes, you may wonder if other family members are at risk. It turns out that Type 1 diabetes does often run in families. In fact, researchers have found nearly 20 different genes that can affect your risk for developing diabetes.
Two of the best studied genes in Type 1 diabetes are the HLA region and the insulin gene. Although many more Type 1 diabetes genes exist, we will focus on these two because of their central role in the disease

In Type 1, the truth is the cause has not been proven, reseach is ongoing.
