Ectropherogram obtained by direct DNA sequencing of KC samples, showing the absence of the intronic 7-base deletion (c.169+50delTAAACAG) in intron 2 of SOD1 gene. The data reveal the exon 2 fragment and part of intron 2 in which we can observe the presence of the 7 nucleotides (TAAACAG) corresponding to the mutation site. The sequenced fragments exhibited 100% DNA identity to the SOD1 gene reference sequence from GenBank database (accession number NG_008689.1)
