From: Biogeographical origin and timing of the founder ichthyosis TGM1 c.1187G > A mutation in an isolated Ecuadorian population

Figure 5

Schematic representation of the two proposed scenarios that could explain the origin of the TGM1: c.1187A > G mutation. (A) This model suggests the Galician (Spanish) origin of the c.1187A > G mutation found in Ecuadorian families. The geographic location of the Ecuadorian families (Manabí province) is indicated as circles. Largest Ecuadorian cities were also marked as reference points. (B) This model represents the dual origin, Ecuadorian and European, of the c.1187A > G mutation as a result of two independent mutational events.
