The SALSA MLPA Probemix P445 KDM6A is a research use only (RUO) assay for the detection of deletions or duplications in the KDM6A gene, which is associated with Kabuki syndrome.
Kabuki syndrome is a rare congenital disorder characterised by intellectual disability, growth delays and distinctive facial features. Type 1 Kabuki syndrome (KS1) has been linked to mutations in the MLL2 gene (also known as KMT2D), while Type 2 Kabuki syndrome (KS2) has been associated with the X-chromosomal KDM6A gene, also known as UTX and KABUK2. KDM6A encodes a histone demethylase that interacts with MLL2.
The KDM6A gene (30 exons) spans ~240 kb of genomic DNA and is located on Xp11.3, about 45 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.
The commercially available positive samples below can be used with the current (A3) version of this product.
