LSI SYT (18q11.2) Dual Color, Break Apart Rearrangement Probe

Product Description

Probe Name Probe Location Fluorophore
Vysis LSI SYT 18q11.2  SpectrumGreen TM
SpectrumOrange TM
Hybridization with the LSI SYT (18q11.2) Break Apart Rearrangement Probe will identify t(18q11.2) but not the specific translocation partner.

The LSI SYT Dual Color, Break Apart Rearrangement Probe consists of a mixture of two FISH DNA probes. The first probe, an ~650 kb probe labeled in SpectrumOrange, extends distally from the SYT gene. The second probe labeled in SpectrumGreen lies 3' or proximal to the SYT gene and is approximately ~1040 kb in length.

LSI SYT (18q11.2). The LSI SYT Dual Color Break Apart Rearrangement Probe consists of a mixture of two FISH DNA probes. The first probe, an ~650 KB probe labeled in SpectrumOrange , extends distally from the SYT gene. The second probe labeled in SpectrumGreen lies 3' or proximal to the SYT gene and is approximately ~1040 kb in length.

Results of Hybridization

In a normal cell that lacks a t(18q11.2) in the SYT gene region, a two fusion signal pattern will be observed, reflecting the two intact copies of SYT (Figure 1). In an abnormal cell with a simple t(18q11.2), a one fusion, one green and one orange signal pattern will be expected.
