General information

The SALSA MLPA Probemix P444 COL4A4 is a research use only (RUO) assay for the detection of deletions or duplications in the COL4A4 gene which is associated with Alport syndrome.

Alport syndrome (AS) is an inherited disorder of the basement membrane, resulting in progressive renal failure due to glomerulonephropathy, variable sensorineural hearing loss, and variable ocular anomalies. It is a genetically heterogeneous disorder, with all forms resulting from mutations in the genes encoding the alpha-3 (COL4A3; 2q36.3), alpha-4 (COL4A4; 2q36.3), and alpha-5 (COL4A5; Xq22.3) chains of type IV collagen, which is a major structural component of the basement membrane (Nozu et al. 2019). AS can be divided into X-Linked AS (XLAS), autosomal recessive AS (ARAS), and autosomal dominant AS (ADAS). XLAS is caused by mutations in the COL4A5 gene and accounts for approximately 80% of AS, whereas ARAS and ADAS are caused by mutations in the COL4A3 and COL4A4 genes and account for approximately 15% and 5% of AS, respectively (Nozu et al. 2019).

Although point mutations in COL4A4 may be a more common cause of disease, intragenic deletions of COL4A4 have been reported (Morinière et al. 2014).

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.

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