Synexin 1 microarray = copy numbers obtained in 10 genomic PCR. 11 b 12 sample was not of sufficient quantity to perform quantitative genomic PCR. We had more than one 13 affected or normal sample from patients 2, 3, and 4, allowing us to perform two copy number 14 analyses in these patients. Results from microarray analyses were not confirmed in patients 5 and 6 because the DNA 15 Supplementary Table 2 Primers used in quantitative genomic PCR to verify copy numbers obtained in analysis of microarray dataa 16 Geneb SYNX1 AR ALB Map Locus 15q22.31 Xq12 4q13.3 Position 62195023 66847971 74503418 Size (bp) 133 155 139 CNC 300 300 300 Forward primer Reverse primer CTTTTGTCATGTTGCCCAAG TGCAGGTCCCACACAAATAA CGGAAGCTGAAGAAACTTGG ATGGCTTCCAGGACATTCAG GCTGTCATCTCTTGTGGGCTGT ACTCATGGGAGCTGCTGGTTC 17 18 a 19 (nM).
