  1. Samples 5, 8, 9, 10 and 11 have an abnormally low variant frequency and sample 7 has a frequency too high for a normal heterozygous and too low for a normal homozygous variant. Sample 6 is compound heterozygous (T369M on one allele and L324P on the other allele). Both the HGVS nomenclature is given and the GBA1 allelic name, which excludes the 39-amino acid signaling peptide, both using accession NP_000148.2
