case_images: As illustrated in Figure 5, pathogenic variants were non-uniformly distributed along the IVD sequence.
case_images: Cumulative distribution of the IVD variants, comparing variant distribution in symptomatic patients (including, acute neonatal and chronic intermittent type) with that of asymptomatic patients (A), and the acute neonatal type vs. the chronic intermittent type (B).

case_images: Figures 6A,B shows the cumulative distribution of symptomatic patients (including acute neonatal and chronic intermittent types) and asymptomatic, acute neonatal, and chronic intermittent patients, respectively. In Figure 6A, three steep regions were revealed: (a) 123-159; (b) 282-318; and (c) 356-403. In Figure 6B, two steep areas can be observed: (a) 123-159 and (b) 356-403.
case_images: Three-dimensional (3D) modeling of areas 123-159 and 356-403. (A) Yellow: the 123-159 region; green: FAD; blue: CoA Persulfide; purple: FAD binding sites (numbered). (B) Yellow: the 356-403 region; green: FAD; blue: CoA Persulfide; yellow balls: FAD binding sites (numbered). FAD, flavin adenine dinucleotide.
