Pathogenic variants of SMS2. (A) Predicted membrane topology of SMS2 indicating active site residues and positions of 3 residues substituted in pathogenic SMS2 variants (p.Arg50*, Ile62Ser, Met64Arg). (B) SMS2 sequence alignment of the region immediately upstream of transmembrane domain 1 (TMD1) in human, mouse, and zebrafish. Pathogenic SMS2 variants and the ER export defected by Ile62Ser- and Met64Arg-variations are indicated. Database accession numbers for the sequences are human SMS2, Q8NHU3; mouse SMS2, Q9D4B1; zebrafish SMS2a, B8A5Q0; zebrafish SMS2b, Q6DEI3.
