| Normal and mutated alleles are identified according to repeat motif shifts.
Tetranucleotide markers (D14S588 and D1S551) show the corresponding
normal allele, as well as the mutated allele that was shifted greater than 1 or
less than 2 repeat motifs. Mutated alleles are indicated with a red star and the
number of repeat motif shifts is in parentheses. (-) indicated a loss of repeat
units, while (+) indicated a gain of repeat units. Normal alleles are shown next
to their mutated alleles. Each set of peaks is identified by the marker name
and repeat motif (top row). Shown below each peak is the size of each allele
in base pair (bp). Markers were labeled with 6-FAM (blue) fluorescent dyes. |
