Figure

  • Fig. 1 Pedigree and sequencing chromatograms in a family with autosomal-dominant hereditary spastic paraplegia. A: Pedigree of the family with a heterozygous pathogenic variant in REEP1. Arrow indicates the proband, whose DNA was used for exome sequencing. Genotypes of REEP1 (c.337C>T) are indicated under each subject (square: male, circle: female, filled: affected, and nonfilled: unaffected). B: Sequencing chromatograms of the c.337C>T (p.Arg113*) pathogenic variant in REEP1. The pathogenic variant in REEP1 detected by whole-exome sequencing was confirmed by capillary sequencing. This heterozygous pathogenic variant completely cosegregated with the affected individuals in this family. Arrows indicate sites of the pathogenic variant.
