Fig. 1. Familial pedigree and DNA sequencing results. (A) Pedigree constructed through personal interviews. Index case's parents (IV-5 and IV-17) are consanguineous, sharing a common ancestor three generations back. Eleven relatives of the index case were heterozygous for p.Gly188Glu LPL mutation. Individuals I-2, II-2, II-3, III-3, and III-7 were not studied, but they were obligate carriers of the p.Gly188Glu mutation. Electropherograms from IV-2, IV-17, and V-5 showed the three possible genotypes, (B) wild-type homozygote p.Gly188Gly, (C) heterozygote, and (D) mutant homozygote p.Glu188Glu, respectively.
