Figure 1 Southern blot of EcoRI-digested genomic DNA hybridized with a large (1.5–3-Kb), nonspecific CAG/CTG repeat probe. Lane 7 shows a strong band at 2.8–3 Kb (arrow) for individual A7. Lanes 1–6 and 8 contain DNA from other BPAD and SCZ individuals.

Figure 2 RED on primary λgt10 clones (a–j) picked from genomic library (screened with CAG/CTG probe) generated from individual A7 (RED from genomic DNA: lane number). Myotonic dystrophy positive control is shown in lane DM. Size marker (Sequamark size ladder; Research Genetics) is shown in lane M.

Figure 3 Southern hybridization analysis, which was performed with use of (A) EcoRI and (B) HindIII on BPAD proband A7 (lane 1), sibling of A7 (lane 2), and unaffected individuals (lanes 3–6) and EcoRI (C) on SCZ trio, proband (lane P), father (lane F), and mother (lane M) and (D) on CEPH pedigree 1334. Family member CEPH numbers shown (bottom). Lane S represents standard control DNA.
