Figure

  • Fig. 1. Family tree and chromatograms of the causative genetic mutation in the patient and parents. The blank square and circle indicate the unaffected father and mother, respectively; the filled square indicates the affected patient. Sanger sequencing confirmed a c.731T>G (p.Leu244*) mutation in the KMT2A gene of the patient. However, the parents did not have a mutation in the KMT2A gene. WT, wild type.
