General information

NXtec D024-A1 KaryoProfiler is a research use only (RUO) assay for the detection of gross copy number changes, encompassing all chromosomes, typically at a ~2-4 Mb resolution. Therefore, this probemix allows for fast and cost-effective genome-wide CN characterisation of DNA samples in a high-throughput fashion, allowing accurate detection of gross CN changes in various genetic backgrounds and contexts.

Possible applications may include the characterisation of DNA samples harbouring gross chromosomal abnormalities associated with genetic disorders. Such genetic aberrations may include gains or deletions of whole chromosomes, as well as gross copy number (CN) changes that are subchromosomal in nature (https://medlineplus.gov).

Gross CN determination is also pivotal in embryonic stem cell (ESC) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) characterisation, as these stem cells often acquire non-random genetic changes when cultured for a longer time. Alterations commonly include gains or losses of chromosomes or subchromosomal fragments. Frequently affected chromosomes include, but are not limited to, chromosomes 12, 17, 20 and X (The International Stem Cell Initiative, 2011; Assau et al, 2020).

Furthermore, additional applications of the NXtec D024-A1 KaryoProfiler may include:

  • Follow-up analysis of abnormal findings from FISH, array CGH, or NGS.
  • Complementation of karyotyping in cases with unclear or failed results.
  • Monitoring genomic drift and instability in long-term or high-passage cultures.
  • Screening and selection of clones prior to functional studies.
  • Detection of low-level mosaicism or subclones when present in ≥30% of the DNA sample.
  • Indication of cross-contamination, detecting contaminating cell fractions as low as 7.5%.

Positive samples

Inclusion of a positive sample is usually not required, but can be useful for the analysis of your experiments. MRC Holland has very limited access to positive samples and cannot supply such samples. We recommend using positive samples from your own collection. Alternatively, you can use positive samples from an online biorepository, such as the Coriell Institute.

Positive samples for this product can be found in the file D024-A1-0125 Supplemental Table 1 - positive samples.xlsx.
