A Second Common Mutation in the Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase Gene: An Additional Risk Factor for Neural-Tube Defects? Nathalie M.J. van der Put, Fons Gabreëls, Erik M.B. Stevens, Jan A.M.

Figure 1 RFLP analysis for the 1298(A→C) mutation on a 163-bp PCR fragment with MboII. The 1298(A→C) mutation abolishes an MboII restriction site. Digestion of the 163-bp fragment of the 1298AA genotype gives five fragments, of 56, 31, 30, 28, and 18 bp, whereas the 1298CC genotype results in four fragments, of, namely, 84, 31, 30, and 18 bp. The figure depicts the three possible genotypes. The 18-bp fragment has been run off the gel.
