2 Figure 1 PCR strategy for mutation analysis of SALL1 exons 1–3. Exons are shown as boxes, introns as lines. Zinc fingers are indicated as vertical bars within the exons. Hatched regions = 5′/3′ UTR. For primers (arrows), see table 1. The American Journal of Human Genetics  , DOI: ( /302238) Copyright © 1999 The American Society of Human Genetics Terms and Conditions

3 Figure 2 Electropherograms of the mutations (a, c, e, g, i, m, and o) detected in families 3–11 and the corresponding wild-type (wt) sequences (b, d, f, h, j, n, and p). The del mutation in family 7 (i, k, and l) is easily detectable in the patient (i) but much weaker in his mother's lymphocyte (lc) DNA (k) and barely visible in her fibroblast (fbl) DNA (l). Therefore, a mosaicism for the mutation was suspected in the mother.

4 Figure 3 Segregation of the mutation del in family 8. A 368-bp amplicon was digested with PstI and analyzed on a 5% PAGE gel. The digestion results in wild-type fragments of 212 bp and 156 bp in the unaffected family members 1-1, 1-2, and 2-2, whereas the mutated fragment of 146 bp is visible only in the affected members 2-1 and 3-1. The 212-bp fragments are not shown. The American Journal of Human Genetics  , DOI: ( /302238) Copyright © 1999 The American Society of Human Genetics Terms and Conditions

5 Figure 4 Positions of the SALL1 mutations in TBS with respect to the encoded protein. All mutations are truncating and result in the putative proteins, lacking all DZF motifs (oval symbols), that are characteristic of SALL1.
