General information

The SALSA MLPA Probemix P029 WBS is a research use only (RUO) assay for the detection of deletions or duplications in the WBS critical region (WBSCR) on the 7q11.23 chromosomal region, which is associated with Williams-Beuren syndrome (WBS).

Williams-Beuren Syndrome (WBS) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterised by cardiovascular disease, distinctive facial features, connective tissue abnormalities, intellectual disability, a specific cognitive profile, unique personality characteristics, growth abnormalities and endocrine abnormalities. WBS is estimated to occur at a frequency of approximately 1 in 7500 live births (Morris 1999).

Deletions of the WBSCR on 7q11.23, including the ELN gene, are the main cause of WBS. Besides deletions of the WBS region, some duplications have also been described, giving rise to the Williams-Beuren duplication syndrome (OMIM 609757). The commonly deleted or duplicated chromosomal region has a size of 1.55 Mb (90-95%) or 1.84 Mb (5-10%) and is flanked by highly homologous DNA sequences. However, smaller deletions within the WBSCR, with a variable phenotype, have also been described.

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.

See this support article for commercially available positive samples that can be used with this product.
