SALSA MLPA Probemix P307 SEPT9 detects copy number variations in the SEPT9 gene.
Contents: 29 MLPA probes, including 19 probes for the SEPT9 region.
Tissue: human genomic DNA.
Application: research on hereditary neuralgic amyopathy (HNA).
For research use only (RUO). Not for use in diagnostics.
The SALSA MLPA Probemix P307 SEPT9 is a research use only (RUO) assay for the detection of deletions or duplications in the SEPT9 gene, which is associated with Hereditary Neuralgic Amyopathy (HNA).
HNA is an autosomal dominant disorder that affects the brachial plexus and may first appear in childhood. It is characterized by episodes of sudden onset pain in arms and shoulders as well as weakness, followed by total or partial paralysis of the affected area. These episodes are often triggered by an infection, an immunization, childbirth, or overworking the arms and shoulders.
HNA has been associated with mutations in the SEPT9 gene encoding Septin 9, a member of the Septin family. Septins are a group of evolutionarily conserved genes encoding proteins with various functions, including membrane transport, apoptosis, cell polarity, cell cycle regulation, cytokinesis, and oncogenesis. Septin 9 is ubiquitously expressed and it is believed that it is involved in cytokinesis and tumorigenesis.
SALSA MLPA Probemix P307 SEPT9 is for research use only (RUO) in all territories.
A general SALSA MLPA Reagent Kit is required for MLPA experiments (to be ordered separately).

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.
