Table 1.

PTC containing genes selected for RT-PCR and Sanger sequencing of cDNA. All four were Sanger sequenced to confirm that the PTC mutation observed was not a sequencing error in the Illumina data. Sanger sequencing of RT-PCR products showed that each of these genes are transcribed despite the presence of a PTC mutation.
