[email protected] Nabhani et al. Deregulation of FasL as a cause of ALPS-like disease Supplement Supplementary Methods Sanger sequencing of germline and somatic mutations in classical ALPS genes Exons including exon/intron borders of FAS, FASLG and CASP10 were amplified by PCR employing the Phusion High Fidelity PCR Master Mix (New England Biolabs), specific forward and reverse primers (listed in Supplemental Table 1, 0.5 µM each) and 20 ng of template DNA. Cycling conditions: 30 seconds at 98oC followed by 30 cycles of 7 seconds at 98oC, 23 seconds at 55-65oC, 30 seconds at 72oC and a final extension of 10 minutes at 72oC.
