see Figure 1 for pedigrees;
nucleotide position is based on NM_007126.3, and amino acid numbering is based on NP_009057.1; ALP, alkaline phosphatase; CPK, creatine phosphokinase;
III:4 of family ITALS#1 is an obligate carrier of this mutation;
respiratory failure hastened by co-existing pulmonary disease;
III:1 of family UP731 is an obligate carrier of this mutation.
