http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/36333503http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"Gene expression is tightly regulated, with many genes exhibiting cell-specific silencing when their protein product would disrupt normal cellular function1. This silencing is largely controlled by non-coding elements, and their disruption might cause human disease2. We performed gene-agnostic screening of the non-coding regions to discover new molecular causes of congenital hyperinsulinism. This identified 14 non-coding de novo variants affecting a 42-bp conserved region encompassed by a regulatory element in intron 2 of the hexokinase 1 gene (HK1). HK1 is widely expressed across all tissues except in the liver and pancreatic beta cells and is thus termed a 'disallowed gene' in these specific tissues. We demonstrated that the variants result in a loss of repression of HK1 in pancreatic beta cells, thereby causing insulin secretion and congenital hyperinsulinism. Using epigenomic data accessed from public repositories, we demonstrated that these variants reside within a regulatory region that we determine to be critical for cell-specific silencing. Importantly, this has revealed a disease mechanism for non-coding variants that cause inappropriate expression of a disallowed gene."xsd:string
