Figure 1 Pedigree and putative genotypes inferred from families 17 and 24. The Journal of Molecular Diagnostics 2011 13, 41-47DOI: (10.1016/j.jmoldx.2010.11.009) Copyright © 2011 American Society for Investigative Pathology and the Association for Molecular Pathology Terms and Conditions
Figure 2 Genomic DNA sequence of exon 1 of the survival motor neuron (SMN) gene from the father in family 25. The father had an “A” insertion (indicated by the box) at codon 8 (underlined), resulting in a frame shift on this allele (mutated allele).
