Functional effects of KCNJ11 mutations causing neonatal diabetes: enhanced activation by MgATP.

Recent studies have shown that heterozygous mutations in KCNJ11, which encodes Kir6.2, the pore-forming subunit of the ATP-sensitive potassium (K(ATP)) channel, cause permanent neonatal diabetes either alone (R201C, R201H) or in association with developmental delay, muscle weakness and epilepsy (V59...
