1 mix P264-C1 Human Telomere-9 Lot C As compared to version B1, one in the 3q region and two s in the 4q region have been replaced. Furthermore, 32 s have been changed in length, but not in sequence This P264-C1 mix can be used to confirm and further characterise abnormalities detected by SALSA mix P036 and/or SALSA mix P070 used for broad human sub screening. This SALSA P264-C1 Human Telomere-9 mix contains: 15 s in the terminal 9.1 Mb of chromosome arm 1q 13 s in the terminal 5.0 Mb of chromosome arm 2q 11 s in the terminal 3.9 Mb of chromosome arm 3q 10 s in the terminal 5.1 Mb of chromosome arm 4q SALSA mixes P036 and P070 each contain one MLPA for each subtelomeric region and are frequently used for initial screening for subtelomeric deletions and duplications. Most of the s in these mixes detect a well-characterised gene close to the. The s in P036 and P070 are different, allowing results obtained with one mix to be confirmed by the other. For the p-s of the acrocentric chromosomes 13, 14, 15, 21 and 22, it is not possible to design reliable s. The P036 and P070 mixes contain a second for these q arms, which target a DNA sequence close to the. We recommend using SALSA mix P036 Subs mix 1 and SALSA mix P070 Subs mix 2B for primary screening of the subs. Results obtained with these mixes can be confirmed and further characterized with one of the specific follow-up mixes for analysis, such as this P264-C1 Human Telomere-9 mix. This SALSA mix is designed to detect deletions/duplications of one or more sequences in the above mentioned chromosomal regions in a DNA sample. Heterozygous deletions of recognition sequences should give a 35-50% reduced relative peak height of the amplification product of that. Note that a mutation or polymorphism in the sequence detected by a can also cause a reduction in relative peak height, even when not located exactly on the ligation site! In addition, some 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. SALSA mixes 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 mixes and reagents includes a limited license to use these products for research purposes. The use of a SALSA mix 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 Acids Research, 30 e57 (2002).

In addition, it contains nine control fragments generating an amplification product smaller than 120 nt: four DNA Quantity fragments (Q-fragments) at nt, three DNA Denaturation control fragments (D-fragments) at nt, one X-fragment at 100 nt and one Y-fragment at 105 nt. More information on how to interpret observations on these control fragments can be found in the MLPA protocol. Data generated by this mix should be normalised with a robust method. (1) Intra-sample normalisation should be performed by dividing the signal of each by the signal of every other in that sample, thus creating as many ratios per as there are other s. Subsequently, the median of all these produced ratios per should be taken; this is the s Normalisation Constant. (2) Secondly, intersample comparison should be performed by dividing the Normalisation Constant of each in a given sample by the average Normalisation Constant of that in all the reference samples. Data normalisation should be performed within one experiment. Only samples purified by the same method should be compared. Confirmation of most deletions and amplifications can be done by e.g. Southern blotting, long range PCR, qpcr or FISH. Note that Coffalyser, the MLPA analysis tool developed at, can be downloaded free of charge from our website Subtelomeric abnormalities The detection of abnormal copy numbers in subtelomeric regions is very complicated. Compared to other regions of the genome, these regions are rich in sequences with variable copy numbers. Copy number changes of sequences within these regions can also occur in unaffected individuals and the effect of a deletion or duplication will depend on the genes present in the affected region. The choice of genes targeted by this mix has in part been guided by their chromosomal location. Not all copy number changes identified will result in phenotypic abnormalities! For all abnormalities detected, we strongly recommend testing the patient s parents to determine whether a copy number aberration found in the patient is truly de novo. Please be aware that a considerable number of abnormalities detected by a single may not have a phenotypic effect, but can be due to a rare polymorphism or a copy number change which is also present in one of the parents. For some chromosome arms, even a large subtelomeric deletion of more than 1 Mb can be inherited without a phenotypic effect. No method will be capable of detecting all chromosomal aberrations. MLPA will not detect inversions or balanced translocations. Frequent microdeletion syndromes can be detected with SALSA mix P245 Microdeletion Syndromes-1A but many rare interstitial deletions will not be More information on copy number changes in the human genome can be found in the Database of Genomic Variants ( This mix was developed at.

The gene names used in previous versions can be found between brackets in Table 1 and Table 2. Many s in this mix are sensitive to salt, the peak height of the denaturation control fragments (88 nt and 96 nt) should be checked carefully for lower signals.

Subtelomeric deletion of the 1q region causes a recognizable phenotype, including intellectual disability, microcephaly, growth retardation and corpus callosum abnormalities. Patients with microscopic deletion have the same, albeit more severe, phenotype as patients with submicroscopic deletions in this region. This implies that presentation of the 1q deletion syndrome is mainly caused by haploidy of genes in the subtelomeric region (van Bon et al., 2008, J Med t. 45:346-54; de Vries et al., 2001, J Med t. 38:175-8). Van Bever et al. suggest that genes in the distal 6 Mb to the are associated with intellectual disability (van Bever et al., 2005, Am J Med t. 135:91-5). More information on the 1q43-q44 deletion syndrome can be found in OMIM # Please note that a subtelomeric 1q duplication of 2.9 Mb has been observed in healthy individuals (Rooms et al., 2006, Clin t. 69:58-64; Balikova et al., 2007, Hum Mutat. 28:958-67).

6 Several patients with 3q29 microdeletion syndrome have been reported. The clinical phenotype was variable despite an almost identical deletion size and may include mild-to-moderate intellectual disability, delayed psychomotor development, and slightly dysmorphic facial features (Willatt et al., 2005, Am J Hum t. 77:154-60; Digilio et al., 2009, Am. J. Med. t. 149A: ; Li et al., 2009, Europ. J. Med. t. 52: ; Quintero-Rivera et al., 2010, Am. J. Med. t. 152A: ). Lisi et al. reported a family in which 5 members had a 3q29 microduplication. They presented with mild-tomoderate intellectual disability, dysmorphic features, and other variable clinical features (Lisi et al., 2008, Am. J. Med. t. 146A: ). More information about these syndromes can also be found in OMIM # (3q29 microdeletion) and # (3q29 microduplication).

Terminal deletion of the long arm of chromosome 4 is a rare genetic event associated with a distinctive phenotype dependent on the deletion size. Deletions spanning the 4q32 band include intellectual disability and mild craniofacial anomalies (Sills et al., 2007, Orphanet J Rare Dis. 2:9). All patients with a confirmed diagnosis of facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) and for whom detailed molecular studies have been performed, carry a chromosomal rearrangement within the subtelomeric region of 4q (4q35). The abnormalities found in FSHD patients are located in a complex chromosomal area telomeric of the FRG1 gene. These cannot be detected using MLPA. More information about this condition can be found in OMIM # Please note that benign subtelomeric duplications as well as deletions of 4q of more than 1 Mb have previously been reported (Ravnan et al., 2005, J Med t. 43:478-89; Balikova et al., 2007, Hum Mutat. 28:958-67).
