From: Prevalence of pathogenetic MC4R mutations in Italian children with early Onset obesity, tall stature and familial history of obesity

Figure 2

A. The essential family tree (father, mother and daughter) of the proband carrying the Q307X mutation is shown. B and C show the BMI chart for the subject II 1 (proband) and for the subject I 1 (the father), respectively. Both carry the mutation, but, while subject II 1 shows an early onset of obesity, the subject I 1 became obese after he was 20 years old. The half black square indicates males heterozygotes for the mutation, the half black circle indicates the females heterozygotes for the mutation.
