Youth-onset type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a growing public health concern. Its genetic basis and relationship to other forms of diabetes are largely unknown. To gain insight into the genetic architecture and biology of youth-onset T2D, we analyzed exome sequences of 3,005 youth-onset T2D cases and 9,777 ancestry matched adult controls. We identified (a) monogenic diabetes variants in 2.1% of individuals; (b) two exome-wide significant ( Show less
