2. FIGURE 1
Gel electrophoresis showing products from single cells amplified with (A) primers described in van der Steege et al. (13) and (B) our modified protocol. Lane 1 shows an undigested sample; lane 2 an amplified cell from a control individual showing only SMN1 copies, lane 3 an amplified cell from a control individual showing SMN1 and SMN2 digestion products; lane 4 an amplified cell from an SMN1-deleted patient showing only SMN2.

3. FIGURE 2
SMN1 and SMN2 exon 7 wild-type (Wt) or modified (mod.) sequences. Boldface letters indicate modified nucleotide by the amplification-created restriction site PCR. Arrows represent the primers used in this study: (a) inner forward primer; (b) forward primer described in van der Steege et al. (13); (c) inner reverse primer. Boxed nucleotides indicate the Dra I enzyme restriction sites.
