Notes:

a

* = mutations studied in molecular dynamics simulations; ins = in-frame nucleotide insertion; del = in-frame nucleotide deletion; fsX = frameshifting mutation, with the following number indicating the number of new amino acids downstream of the mutation preceding introduction of a premature stop codon.

b

Binding to the first or second Zn of the domain; NBS = not a binding site.

c

Inheritance pattern: SF = sporadic female; SM = sporadic male; XLD = X-linked dominant; XLR = X-linked recessive.

d

Age (years) at which patient became wheel-chair bound or died, or current age if still ambulatory; NA=not available

e

JC = joint contractures; RBBB = right bundle branch block; AFb = atrial fibrillation; AFI = atrial flutter

f

Myopathy symptoms in female members: o = age of onset; wcb = age at which wheelchair bound; asymp = asymptomatic.

g

RB = reducing bodies; RV = rimmed vacuoles; AV = autophagy vacuoles; Nu = nucleus; IC = inclusion; Ub = ubiquitin;

h

FHL1 expression level by western blot; nl = normal.
