Figure 1. Families with mutations in CUL4B. Below the pedigree for each family, a wild-type (wt) and a mutant (mut) representative trace are shown. The position of the mutation is indicated by an arrow, and the numbering is according to reference sequences (GenBank accession numbers NM_003588 and NP_003579).
