Monogenic diabetes mellitus includes a heterogeneous group of diabetes types that are caused by pathogenic variants in single genes. It is estimated that the monogenic forms of diabetes could represent as much as 5% of all cases of diabetes mellitus. The main phenotypes associated with a monogenic cause of diabetes include, maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY), neonatal diabetes mellitus (NDM), and very rare diabetes-associated syndromes.  

The Monogenic Diabetes Panel includes sequence and deletion/duplication analysis of over 60 nuclear genes and the analysis of three mitochondrial mutations (m.3243A>G, m.8296A>G, m.14709T>C) that are associated with diabetes and deafness.
