Novel Homozygous Inactivating Mutation in the <i>PCSK1</i> Gene in an Infant with Congenital Malabsorptive Diarrhea

Novel Homozygous Inactivating Mutation in the <i>PCSK1</i> Gene in an Infant with Congenital Malabsorptive Diarrhea

Proprotein convertase 1/3 (PC1/3), encoded by the <i>PCSK1</i> gene, is expressed in neuronal and (entero)endocrine cell types, where it cleaves and hence activates a number of protein precursors that play a key role in energy homeostasis. Loss-of-function mutations in <i>PCSK1<...
