Figure 3. (a) Dye terminator chemistry method. Arrows indicate where translation starts. (b) Autoradiographic detection method. Arrows indicate where translation starts. ‘N’ marks the A->G mutation in the initiation codon. (c) Restriction-enzyme analysis of exon 1 of PAX9 in the family. The longer fragment represents the mutated, uncleaved allele, and the shorter fragment the wild-type allele. The numbers indicate: (1) affected grandfather, (2) unaffected mother, (3) H2O, (4) proband, and (5) affected father.
