While diagnostic tools are based on Caucasian cohorts, Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) studies are needed to identify new genes in non-Caucasians, as up to 77% of patients do not harbor variants of significance in MODY-known genes. No WES studies have addressed the genomic landscape of MODY beyond its canonical genes in Latino populations. We aimed to characterize the genomic landscape of MODY through WES in a Mexican cohort, comparing cases with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients and healthy controls (HC).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>WES was performed in 17 patients with MODY, 17 with T2DM and 17 HC.
