Deletions of NF1 gene and exons detected by multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification.

To estimate the contribution of single and multi-exon NF1 gene copy-number changes to the NF1 mutation spectrum, we analysed a series of 201 Italian patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). Of these, 138 had previously been found, using denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography or protein truncation test, to be heterozygous for intragenic NF1 point mutations/deletions/insertions, a...

Detecting exon deletions and duplications of the DMD gene using Multiplex Ligation-dependent Probe Amplification (MLPA).

OBJECTIVES To evaluate the efficacy of Multiplex Ligation-dependent Probe Amplification (MLPA) technique in comparison with the traditional multiplex PCR assay in detection of exon deletions and duplications of the DMD gene. DESIGN AND METHODS The sensitivity and accuracy of MLPA were assessed and compared with the multiplex PCR in a total of 63 subjects including 43 subjects with Duchenne mu...

Applications of multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) method in diagnosis of cancer and genetic disorders

Introduction: Lots of human diseases and syndromes result from partial or complete gene deletions and duplications or changes of certain specific chromosomal sequences. Many various methods are used to study the chromosomal aberrations including Comparative Genomic Hybridization (CGH), Fluorescent in Situ Hybridization (FISH), Southern blots, Multiplex Amplifiable Probe Hybridisation (MAP...

Ligation-independent mechanism of multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification.

Multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) is a widely used technique for detecting genomic structural variants. The technique is based on hybridization and ligation, followed by amplification of the ligation products. Therefore, ligation is considered a fundamental process that determines the feasibility and fidelity of MLPA. However, despite the widespread use of this technique, ...
