Previous studies of the insulin gene--utilized restriction-fragment--length polymorphisms as markers for potential mutations at this locus. This indirect type of analysis could not define the number of variants that might exist within the structural portions and regulatory regions of the gene in non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) patients. New technology has allowed us to examine insulin genes at the single nucleotide level from 100 American black NIDDM patients. Genomic DNA from patients was amplified by the polymerase chain reaction with primers flanking four regions of the gene: 1) the proximal promoter from positions -182 to 42 (including most of exon 1); 2) exon 1 from 14 to 259, which included the rest of exon 1 and all of the 1st intron; 3) exon 2 from 216 to 452; and 4) exon 3 from 1188 to 1433. One of the primers in each reaction was 32P-end labeled and the resulting products denatured into single strands and electrophoresed on nondenaturing sequencing gels such that mobility was a function of composition and size (single-strand conformational polymorphism or SSCP). Under these conditions, single-base changes in fragments up to 245 nucleotides were detected. Analysis of the proximal promoter region revealed several SSCP patterns in individuals. Direct genomic sequencing of DNA representative of these patterns showed the presence of a common C to G change at position -56 and a C deletion at position -90 in three patients.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
