SALSA MLPA Probemix P328 EYS detects copy number variations in the EYS gene.
Contents: 55 MLPA probes, including 46 probes for EYS of which 3 detect the wild-type sequences of the c.1971delT, c.2710_2726del17 and c.5857G>T mutations.
Tissue: human genomic DNA.
Application: research on autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa 25 (RP25).
For research use only (RUO). Not for use in diagnostics.
The SALSA MLPA Probemix P328-A3 EYS is a research use only (RUO) assay for the detection of deletions or duplications in the EYS gene.
The EYS gene (43 exons) spans ~2 Mb of genomic DNA, and is located on chromosome 6q12, ~64 Mb from the p-telomere.
Mutations in the EYS (eyes shut homolog) gene, originally designated as the RP25 locus on chromosome 6q12, are a major cause of autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa 25 (RP25). RP25 is characterised by progressive peripheral vision loss and night vision difficulties (nyctalopia) that can lead to central vision loss.

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.
