(G) Family BMKS009 with an affected female individual with a maternal promoter deletion and ring chromosome 18 resulting in a 18q deletion (chr18: 73,376,178_78,077,248del) (published in Burn et al.1). Paternal DNA was not available. (H) Family BMKS010 with an affected male individual with promoter deletion and single exon deletion 3. DNA was not available from both parents.

Figure 3 Gene Structure of TXNL4A with Identified Mutations and Deletions The heterozygous deletions comprising TXNL4A identified in the index individuals of families BMKS009, BMKS007, BMKS004, and BMKS006 with a size of 4.7 Mb, 1.147 Mb, 1.164 Mb, and 0.484 Mb, respectively, are shown at the top of the figure. The gene structure with the identified mutation in families BMKS001, BMKS002, and BMKS005 are shown at the bottom as well as the exon 3 deletion of family BMKS010.

Figure 4 The 34 bp Deletion Reduces the Activity of the Putative TXNL4A Promoter in Dual Luciferase Assays HEK293 cells were transfected with the reporter vector carrying the wild-type promoter without the deletion (without del) of TXNL4A, with either type of the 34 bp deletion (type 1 Δ or type 2 Δ), or the reporter vector without insert (control). The vector without the deletion (magenta) functioned as promoter, enhancing the luciferase expression by 85-fold in comparison with the control vector (blue). However, the vector with the type 1 Δ (green) reduced promoter’s activity by 59% and with the type 2 Δ (red) by additional 13%, resulting in a total reduction of 72% in comparison with the vector without the deletion. Data represent the means and standard deviations of six technical replicates of three independent experiments and demonstrate the fold change of the relative luciferase units (RLU) compared to the control vector. Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences, with ∗p < 0.05 (Wilcoxon rank sum test).

Figure 5 Depletion of DIB1, the Yeast Ortholog of TXNL4A, Results in Defective Tri-snRNP Assembly Yeast whole-cell splicing extract from strain DIB1GALHA grown in galactose (nondepleted) or glucose (Dib1 depleted) was fractionated through a 10%–30% glycerol gradient to separate spliceosome complexes. RNA isolated from fractions was subjected to primer extension to detect the levels of the U1, U2, U4, U5, and U6 snRNAs in each fraction. The fraction numbers are indicated at the top of each panel. The locations of the U6 snRNP, U4/U6 di-snRNP, U5 snRNP, and U4/U6.U5 tri-snRNP in the fractions are indicated below each panel.
