A mutation of Glu 111 in the active site will render the enzyme inactive or a mutation at Pro 286 will slow down the enzymatic activity. A low functioning or inactive insulin degrading enzyme will allow the buildup of both insulin and amyloid beta-proteins. | A mutation of Glu 111 in the active site will render the enzyme inactive or a mutation at Pro 286 will slow down the enzymatic activity.

For insulin, if it is allowed to build up, insulin resistance can occur and contribute to the development of type II diabetes. A mutation at Asp 34 will cause Hyperproinsulinemia <ref>doi.org/10.1210/en.135.2.610</ref>, a disease where the body secretes insulin before it has been fully processed (proinsulin) and so does not function properly. | For insulin, if it is allowed to build up, insulin resistance can occur and contribute to the development of type II diabetes <ref>doi.org/10.1016/S0002-9440(10)63229-4</ref>.

Several different mutations at birth or a young age can contribute to the onset of neonatal diabetes or type I diabetes. The locations are: Asp 24, Arg 32, Ser 32, Gly 43, Val 47, Cys 48, Cys 89, Cys 90, Tyr 96 and Cys 108. | Several different mutations at birth or a young age can contribute to the onset of neonatal diabetes or type I diabetes.
