Pedigree of proband (arrow) and RT-qPCR results for the GPIHBP1 gene

This experiment was carried out twice, and the 2-∆∆Ct value represents the average value from the two experiments. The 2-∆∆Ct value for exons 1–3 of the proband and his brother is one-half that of the mother, and the 2-∆∆Ct value for exon 4 of the sibling patients is almost zero. The 2-∆∆Ct value for exons 1–4 of the father is one-half that of the control, and the 2-∆∆Ct value for only exon 4 of the mother is one-half that of the control. Thus, the whole-exon 1, 2, 3, and 4 deletions in the sibling patients were derived from the father, and the exon 4 deletion was derived from the mother
