Pedigrees in a New Illness

Caption

These are genetic pedigrees of 3 families with individuals with familial or de novo (spontaneous) mutations in the NAA15 gene. The mutations caused different impacts (called phenotypes by scientists) in each of the affected individuals. So far, 37 individuals in 32 families have been found to have the newly identified illness.
