Figure 1.

Distribution of ASXL1 mutations along the protein. From top to bottom are shown the localization of the ASXL1 gene on chromosome region 20q11, the exon structure of ASXL1, and the ASXL1 protein with its conserved motifs and binding regions: HARE helix-turn-helix at the N-terminus, HP1/CBX5 binding region, ASXH, an α-helical domain that contains LXXLL (nuclear receptor boxes), and the C-terminal plant homeodomain (PHD) finger. Below reported mutations (see Table 1) are shown along the protein: circles and triangles indicate frameshift and nonsense mutations, respectively, and the colors correspond to the exon location.
