SALSA MLPA probemix P083-C1 CDH1 Lot C1-0211. As compared to previous B1 version, new in version C1: two CDH1 probes and several reference probes have been replaced/added. In addition, the 88 and 96nt control fragments have been replaced (QDX2). Germline mutations in the CDH1 gene have been reported in families with a hereditary predisposition to gastric cancer. CDH1 or E-cadherin is a classical cadherin from the cadherin superfamily. The encoded protein is a calcium dependent cell-cell adhesion glycoprotein. Reduced expression of E-cadherin is regarded as one of the main molecular events involved in dysfunction of the cell-cell adhesion system, triggering cancer invasion and metastasis. Loss of function is thought to contribute to progression in cancer by increasing proliferation, invasion, and/or metastasis. The ectodomain of this protein mediates bacterial adhesion to mammalian cells and the cytoplasmic domain is required for internalization. The CDH1 gene (16 exons) spans ~98.2 kb of genomic DNA and is located on chromosome 16q22.1, ~67.4 Mb from the p-telomere. The P083-C1 probemix contains probes for each CDH1 exon. In addition, 17 reference probes are included in this probemix, detecting several different autosomal chromosomal locations. This SALSA probemix is designed to detect deletions/duplications of one or more sequences in the aforementioned gene in a DNA sample. Heterozygous deletions of recognition sequences should give a 35-50% reduced relative peak area of the amplification product of that probe. Note that a mutation or polymorphism in the sequence detected by a probe can also cause a reduction in relative peak area, even when not located exactly on the ligation site! In addition, some probe signals are more sensitive to sample purity and small changes in experimental conditions. Therefore, deletions and duplications detected by a single MLPA probe should always be confirmed by other methods. Not all deletions and duplications detected by MLPA will be pathogenic; users should always verify the latest scientific literature when interpreting their findings. We have no information on what percentage of defects in this gene is caused by deletions/duplications of complete exons. Finally, note that most defects in this gene are expected to be small (point) mutations, most of which will not be detected by this SALSA test. SALSA probemixes and reagents are sold by for research purposes and to demonstrate the possibilities of the MLPA technique. They are not CE/FDA certified for use in diagnostic procedures. Purchase of the SALSA test probemixes and reagents includes a limited license to use these products for research purposes. The use of a SALSA probemix and reagents requires a thermocycler with heated lid and sequence type electrophoresis equipment. Different fluorescent PCR primers are available. The MLPA technique has been first described in Nucleic Acid Research 30, e57 (2002). References for SALSA probemix P083 CDH1 Oliveira C et al.

Data analysis The P083-C1 CDH1 probemix contains 34 MLPA probes with amplification products between 130 and 409 nt. In addition, it contains 9 control fragments generating an amplification product smaller than 120 nt: four DNA Quantity fragments (Q-fragments) at 64-70-76-82 nt, three DNA denaturation control fragments (Dfragments) at 88-92-96 nt, one X-fragment at 100 nt and one Y-fragment at 105 nt. More information on how to interpret observations on these control fragments can be found in the MLPA protocol. Data generated by this probemix can first be normalised intra-sample by dividing the peak area of each probe s amplification product by the total area of only the reference probes in this probemix (block normalisation). Secondly, inter-sample normalisation can be achieved by dividing this intra-normalised probe ratio in a sample by the average intra-normalised probe ratio of all reference samples. Please note that this type of normalisation assumes no changes occurred in the genomic regions recognised by the reference probes. Data normalisation should be performed within one experiment. Only samples purified by the same method should be compared. Confirmation of most exons deletions and amplifications can be done by e.g. Southern blotting, long range PCR, qpcr, FISH. Note that Coffalyser, the MLPA analysis tool developed at, can be downloaded free of charge from our website www.mlpa.com. Many copy number alterations in healthy individuals are described in the database of genomic variants: http://projects.tcag.ca/variation. For example, a duplication of a complete gene might not be pathogenic, while a partial duplication or a deletion may result in disease. For some genes, certain in-frame deletions may result in a very mild, or no disease. Copy number changes of reference probes are unlikely to be the cause of the condition tested for. Users should always verify the latest scientific literature when interpreting their findings. This probemix was developed at. Info/remarks/suggestions for improvement: info@mlpa.com.
