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

General information

SALSA MLPA Probemix P369 Smith-Magenis is a research use only (RUO) assay for detection of deletions or duplications in the 17p11.2 chromosomal region. Deletion of this region is associated with Smith-Magenis syndrome (SMS), whereas duplication of this region is associated with Potocki-Lupski syndrome (PTLS). SMS is a developmental disorder characterised by craniofacial anomalies, and several neurological and behavioural abnormalities. It is primarily caused by an interstitial deletion on chromosome 17p11.2 where the gene RAI1, included in this probemix, is located. In most cases (~70%), SMS is due to a ~3.7 Mb deletion, but atypical (smaller or larger) deletions, as well as RAI1 mutations have also been found in patients (Elsea & Girirajan 2008).

Haploinsufficiency of RAI1 is therefore thought to play a major role in the SMS phenotype (Elsea & Girirajan 2008). Other genes located in the 17p11.2 critical region that have also been implicated to play a role in some SMS features, namely MY015A (deafness), TNFRSF13B (immune deficiency), PEMT (fatty liver), and ALDH3A2 (dry skin), as well as PMP22 (neuropathy development) which is flanking this region, are also covered (Vilboux et al. 2011 and Poisson et al. 2019).

Furthermore, five probes targeting the 2q37.3 region are included, among which probes targeting the HDAC4 gene. Haploinsufficiency (either by a mutation or deletion) of the HDAC4 gene causes chromosome 2q37 deletion syndrome, which has an overlapping phenotype with SMS. Furthermore, deletion or mutation of the HDAC4 gene results in reduced expression of RAI1 (Williams et al. 2010, Trang et al. 2019).

Duplication of the same ~3.7 Mb region is associated with PTLS, which shows some phenotypical overlap with SMS, yet the clinical features of each syndrome are somewhat distinct. As in SMS, size of the duplication can vary between patients. The prevalence for SMS and PTLS is approximately 1 in 25,000 (Neira-Fresneda & Potocki 2015).

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.
