Asuragen has established the market-leading technology for the reliable amplification and analysis of CGG triplet repeats in the FMR1 gene. The AmplideX PCR/CE C9orf72 Kit (RUO) is an expansion of this technology into the neurogenetics space. The kit provides clinical and pharmaceutical researchers with a reliable and reproducible method for high-resolution genotyping of hexanucleotide repeat expansions in the C9orf72 […]
Asuragen has established the market-leading technology for the reliable amplification and analysis of CGG triplet repeats in the FMR1 gene. The AmplideX PCR/CE C9orf72 Kit (RUO) is an expansion of this technology into the neurogenetics space. The kit provides clinical and pharmaceutical researchers with a reliable and reproducible method for high-resolution genotyping of hexanucleotide repeat expansions in the C9orf72 gene, which is of increasing interest in frontotemporal dementia (FTD) – the second most common form of early onset dementia after Alzheimer’s Disease – and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
Figure 1. Coriell cell line ND06769: The AmplideX Kit correctly sizes a primary allele at 13 repeats and a minor allele at 44 repeats. The expanded allele is also detected in the electropherogram.
Figure 2. Coriell cell line ND06769: Alleles up to 145 repeats can be detected above background and correctly sized, alleles above 145 repeats are amplified and detected as expanded.
Figure 3. Side by side comparison of 2 Coriell cell lines: ND08619 (7,7 homozygous) and ND12102 (7,expanded heterozygous): Extension of the repeat-primed peak pattern beyond the shorter allele clearly differentiates the heterozygous sample from homozygous sample.
