Nucleotide numbering of TREX1 variations reflects cDNA numbering with +1 corresponding to the A of the ATG translation initiation codon in the GenBank reference sequence NM_022517.17.
Besides c.531C>T, all the other variations were found only in heterozygosity.
The two variants were observed in the same SS patient.
