SALSA MLPA Probemix P130 CCM mix-1 detects copy number variations in the KRIT1 (CCM1) and CCM2 genes, and can be used together with SALSA MLPA Probemix P131 CCM mix-2, which detects copy number variations in the PDCD10 (CCM3) gene and offers additional coverage of KRIT1.
Contents: 34 MLPA probes, including 9 probes for KRIT1, and 12 probes for CCM2.
Tissue: human genomic DNA.
Application: research on cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs).
For research use only (RUO). Not for use in diagnostics.
The SALSA MLPA Probemix P130 and P131 CCM are a research use only (RUO) assay for the detection of deletions or duplications in the KRIT1 (CCM1), CCM2 and PDCD10 (CCM3) genes, which are associated with Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs).
Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are vascular lesions of the brain that may lead to hemorrhage, seizures, and neurologic deficits. Most are linked to loss-of-function mutations in one of the aforementioned genes, that can either occur as sporadic events or are inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern with incomplete penetrance. Familial forms originate from germline mutations, often have multiple intracranial lesions that grow in size and number over time, and cause an earlier and more severe presentation.
The KRIT1 gene (20 exons) spans ~47 kb of genomic DNA and is located on 7q21.2, ~92 Mb from the p-telomere. The CCM2 gene (11 exons) spans ~76 kb of genomic DNA and is located on 7p13, ~45 Mb from the p-telomere. The PDCD10 gene (9 exons) spans ~51 kb of genomic DNA and is located on 3q26.1, 167 Mb from the p-telomere.

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.
We have no information about specific commercially available positive samples that can be used with this product.
