  • * cDNA numbering is according to the following transcripts: SOD1 (NM_000454.4), ANG (NM_001145.4 or NM_001097577.2), VAPB (NM_004738.3), TARDBP (NM_8007375.3), FUS (NM_ 0049602).

  • Amino acid numbering according to Human Genome Variation Society guidelines (http://www.hgvs.org/).

  • Amino acid numbering according to the ALS Online Database (http://alsod.iop.kcl.ac.uk/Als/index.aspx), which has been used in the previous published reports on SOD1 and ANG mutations. These numberings lack the first methionine codon for SOD1 or the signal peptide sequence (24 amino acids in length including the initiator methionine) for ANG. Index cases of F31F and F33F families (with FUS mutation) also carry K54E(1) or K17I(2) ANG variants.
