1 SALSA MLPA probemix P207-C3 F9 Lot C As compared to version C three reference probes have been removed. Factor IX deficiency (also called Hemophilia B or Christmas disease) is characterized by a recessive X-linked bleeding disorder. Defects in the F9 gene on chromosome X are one of the main causes of Factor IX deficiency. This gene encodes a vitamin K-dependent serine protease that plays an important function in the blood coagulation cascade. The F9 gene (8 exons) spans ~33 kb of genomic DNA and is located on Xq27.1, ~139Mb from the p- telomere. The P207-C3 probemix contains one probe for each exon of the F9 gene and two probes for exon 8. Furthermore, this probemix contains several probes for the F7 gene and the F8 gene. The F7 gene (9 exons) spans ~15 kb of genomic DNA and is located on 13q34, ~114 Mb from the p-telomere. This probemix contains one or more probes for each exon of the F7 gene with the exception of exon 3. The F8 gene (26 exons) spans ~187 kb of genomic DNA and is located on Xq28, ~154 Mb from the p-telomere. There are 7 probes for F8 included in the probemix. In addition, 13 reference probes are included in this probemix, detecting several different autosomal chromosomal locations. This SALSA probemix is designed to detect deletions/duplications of one or more sequences in the aforementioned genes in a DNA sample. Heterozygous deletions of recognition sequences should give a 35-50% reduced relative peak height of the amplification product of that probe. Deletions of a probe s recognition sequence on the X-chromosome will lead to a complete absence of the corresponding probe amplification product in males, whereas female heterozygotes are recognisable by a 35-50% reduction in relative peak height. Note that a mutation or polymorphism in the sequence detected by a probe can also cause a reduction in relative peak height, even when not located exactly on the ligation site! In addition, some probe signals are more sensitive to sample purity and small changes in experimental conditions. Therefore, deletions and duplications detected by MLPA should always be confirmed by other methods. Not all deletions and duplications detected by MLPA will be pathogenic; users should always verify the latest scientific literature when interpreting their findings. We have no information on what percentage of defects in these genes is caused by deletions/duplications of complete exons. Finally, note that most defects in this gene are expected to be small (point) mutations which will not be detected by this SALSA test. SALSA probemixes and reagents are sold by for research purposes and to demonstrate the possibilities of the MLPA technique. They are not CE/FDA certified for use in diagnostic procedures. Purchase of the SALSA test probemixes and reagents includes a limited license to use these products for research purposes. The use of a SALSA probemix and reagents requires a thermocycler with heated lid and sequence type electrophoresis equipment. Different fluorescent PCR primers are available. The MLPA technique has been first described in Nucleic Acid Research 30, e57 (2002). Related SALSA probemixes P178 F8: Contains probes for the F8 gene, involved in Hemophilia A. P011 VWF-1 and P012 VWF-2: Contain probes for the vwf gene, involved in von Willibrand factor deficiency. P440 F10 + F11: Contains probes for the F10 and the F11 gene, involved in bleeding disorders.

Haemophilia. 14(5): Data analysis The P207-C3 F9 probemix contains 39 MLPA probes with amplification products between 130 and 454 nt. In addition, it contains 10 control fragments generating an amplification product smaller than 120 nt: four DNA Quantity fragments (Q-fragments) at nt, three DNA Denaturation control fragments (Dfragments) at nt, one X-fragment at 100 nt and two Y-fragments at 105 nt and 118 nt. More information on how to interpret observations on these control fragments can be found in the MLPA protocol. Data generated by this probemix can be normalised intra-sample by dividing the peak height of each amplification product by the total peak height of only the reference probes in the probemix (block normalisation). Secondly, inter-sample normalisation can be achieved by dividing the intra-normalised probe ratio in a sample by the average intra-normalised probe ratio of all reference samples. Please note that this type of normalisation assumes that no changes occurred in the genomic regions targeted by the reference probes. It is strongly recommended to use reference and patient samples of the same sex to minimize variation, as intersex comparison makes analysis more difficult. Sex determination can also be done by visual examination of the electropherogram. Data normalisation should be performed within one experiment. Only samples purified by the same method should be compared. Confirmation of most exons deletions and amplifications can be done by e.g. Southern blotting, long range PCR, qpcr, FISH. Note that Coffalyser, the MLPA analysis tool developed at, can be downloaded free of charge from our website Many copy number alterations in healthy individuals are described in the database of genomic variants: For example, a duplication of a complete gene might not be pathogenic, while a partial duplication or a deletion may result in disease. For some genes, certain in-frame deletions may result in a very mild, or no disease. Copy number changes of reference probes are unlikely to be the cause of the condition tested for. Users should always verify the latest scientific literature when interpreting their findings. This probemix was developed at. Info/remarks/suggestions for improvement: info@mlpa.com.
