Fig. 8. TIMMDC1 protein levels are reduced in the affected LCLs and fibroblasts.

Fig. 8

a Western blot showing moderate reduction in TIMMDC1 protein level in the affected male III-6 LCLs (lane 1) compared to the unaffected family members (lanes 2–7). b Western blot showing significant reduction in TIMMDC1 protein level in the affected male (III-6) and female (III-2) fibroblasts (lanes 1, 2) compared to the unaffected carrier parents (II-1 and II-2; lanes 3, 4) and unrelated healthy controls (lanes 5–7). Low levels of TIMMDC1 protein—that was undetectable in shorter exposure—were seen in—the affected (lanes 1, 2) compared to the two carrier-parent (lane 3, 4) fibroblasts. Note that as the parents are heterozygous for the c.597-1340A>G variant, the TIMMDC1 protein level is lower than the unrelated control fibroblasts without this variant. Housekeeping protein β-tubulin was used as a loading control.
