aSee Fig. 1 for position of primers. Both forward and reverse primers in addition to the specific nucleotide sequence have a corresponding M13 tag (M13F, 5'-TGTAAAACGACGGCCAGT- 3' ; M13R, 5'-CAGGAAACAGCTATGACC-3'); start position numbering represents location of 5' end corresponding to the Anderson Reference Sequence [17]. bStart position numbering represents location of the 5' end and corresponds to the DLD cDNA numbering system published by Pons and colleagues [19]. mt, mitochondrial.
