Figure 7From: Digenic mutational inheritance of the integrin alpha 7 and the myosin heavy chain 7B genes causes congenital myopathy with left ventricular non-compact cardiomyopathyMolecular analysis of ITGA7 gene mutation. (A) Mutation analysis of the ITGA7 gene. Arrowheads mark the sites of base alterations. The DNA sequences of the family subjects are shown; the pedigree number is indicated on the right. (B) Evolutionary conservation analysis. The glutamic acid at position 882 is underlined. (C) ITGA7 mRNA expression in human tissues and in RNA derived from family members. M indicates the 1 kb Plus marker (Fermentas).Back to article page
