Contents: 34 MLPA probes, including 11 probes for the WT1 region (covering all WT1 exons), and 3 probes for AMER1.

Tissue: human genomic DNA.

Application: research on Wilms' tumour.

For research use only (RUO). Not for use in diagnostics.

General information

The SALSA MLPA Probemix P118 WT1 is a research use only (RUO) assay for the detection of deletions or duplications in the WT1 gene region and the AMER1 gene, which are associated with Wilms tumours. The majority of Wilms tumour, or nephroblastoma, is caused by defects in the WT1 gene on chromosome 11p13. The WT1 gene product is required for normal formation of the genitourinary system and mesothelial tissues. Mutations in WT1 gene have also been observed in patients with Denys-Drash syndrome, Frasier syndrome, Meacham syndrome, and type 4 nephrotic syndrome. Mutations in the WT1 gene are observed in only 5% of the sporadic Wilms tumours. However, more than 90% of patients with Denys-Drash syndrome, which includes Wilms tumour, carry constitutional intragenic WT1 mutations. Large chromosomal deletions including the WT1 gene cause WAGR syndrome. We recommend the P219 PAX6 probemix to study the extent of chromosomal deletions in WAGR syndrome patients. Deletions at chromosome Xq11 have been implicated in sporadic Wilms tumours. The only gene in the interval is AMER1, which is also called WTX for 'Wilms tumour gene on the X chromosome'.

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.
