Functional Genetic Variant in ATG5 Gene Promoter in Acute Myocardial Infarction

Figure 2

Sequencing chromatograms of the genetic variants in the ATG5 gene promoter. (a) Genetic variants in AMI patients. (b) Novel genetic variants in controls. For the variant (g.106326168_70delTCT), the top panel shows wild type, middle heterozygous, and bottom sequencing after cloning into a vector. For other genetic variants, top panels show wild-type DNA sequences and bottom panels show heterozygous variants, which are marked with arrows. For all variants, sequence orientation is forward.
