Five different proteins with functional defects, cause a form of diabetes termed MODY ( included in type II diabetes). Those include the enzyme GK and four transcription factors, including PDX-1 (MODY-4).

It could also be a pharmacological target for beta-cell defects in Type II diabetes, since it has a role as regulator of islet of Langerhans stem cell activity.
