Figure Legend Snippet: Figure 2. Prioritization of candidate genes. (A) Global ranking of our candidate genes using the Endeavor program, higher ranking indicating more likely candidate. (B) Computation of the Ka/Ks ratios in primates (human versus macaque, first column) and in rodents (mouse versus rat, second column). Higher ratios reflect more rapid evolution. The third column is the ratio between Ka/Ks in primates and rodents. A ratio of .1 indicates accelerated evolution of the gene in the Homo Sapiens lineage. MCPH1, CDK5RAP2, CENPJ and ASPM are known MCPH genes. (C) Transcriptome study. Heatmap generated using the GenePattern software, com- paring expressions of all genes in the 2.7 Mb linkage interval, as well as CEP152, in control lymphoblasts and in lymphoblasts from patients E3 and S1. Red indicates the highest gene expression; dark blue indicates the lowest expression. Some transcripts are targeted by several probes indicated as a, b, c, d.

Figure Legend Snippet: Figure 4. Functional effect of the mutation. (A) RT-PCR of random-primed RNA extracted from our patient’s lymphoblastoı¨d cell lines. Amplified cDNAs using primers surrounding CASC5 exon 18 were loaded on 6% acrylamide gel. F: Unaffected father (family E); P: MCPH patient E3; C1-C4: unrelated normal con- trols; RT+: positive and negative control of retrotranscription. Arrows indicate primers. A smaller band is observed in the homozygous patient and faintly in heterozygous father. Direct sequencing of this band extracted from the gel showed read-through from exon 17 into exon 19. Sequencing of the larger band at the expected size showed inclusion of exon 18 containing the mutation. (B) Ex vivo splicing assay for CASC5 variant. The cells were transfected with vectors con- taining two exons surrounding our exon of interest. One of the vectors contained the mutated exon 18 (EM), the other contained the wild-type exon 18 (EWT). Expressed mRNAs were detected on agarose gels. (C) Indicated amounts of whole cell lysates from HEK293T, HELA and HTB10 cells were separated on SDS-PAGE. CASC5 was detected by western blot using a commercial anti-CASC5 antibody. (D) Electrophoresis 100 mg of whole cell lysates from our patient’s lymphoblastoı¨d cell lines, and western blotting detection of CASC5 using a polyclonal antibody against customized CASC5 peptides (C-term: left; N-term: right). F: Unaffected father (family E); P: MCPH patient E3.
