Missense, frameshift, nonsense, insertions/deletions, splice-site mutations, and rare exonic deletions have been reported in CHI.7,15 No "hot spots" for mutations are present; most mutations are unique to the respective family except for 2 mutations common (F1388del and c.3992-9G b0e; A) in the Ashkenazi Jewish population18 and 2 founder mutations (V187D and E1507K) in the Finnish population.19,20 The frequency of KATP mutations identified is different according to the histopathological form and the responsiveness of CHI patients to diazoxide.
