ASRA. (A) The region around exon 23 of the IIb gene was amplified by PCR using primers IIbE23 and IIbE24Pvu II, followed by digestion with PvuII. The A → C substitution creates a restriction site forPvu II and yields 202-bp and 20-bp fragments. The resulting fragments were electrophoresed in a 6% polyacrylamide gel. (B) The region around exon 18 of the IIb gene was amplified by PCR using primers IIbE17A and IIbI18, followed by digestion withAvr II. Avr II digestion of the PCR products yields 330-bp and 218-bp fragments in the normal allele. The G → A substitution abolished a restriction site for Avr II. The resulting fragments were electrophoresed in a 1.5% agarose gel. F, M, P, and C denote DNA from the patient’s father, mother, patient (MS), and control, respectively. Undigested PCR fragment from the control is also shown (U). Marker: ◊X174 digested with Hae III.
