MALT1 Split CISH Probe is designed for the qualitative detection of human MALT1 gene at 18q21.32 in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded specimens by chromogenic in situ hybridization (CISH).
Recommend Usage:
The product is ready-to-use. No reconstitution, mixing, or dilution is required. Bring probe to room temperature (18-25°C) and mix briefly before use.
Supplied Product:
Reagent Provided:1. Digoxigenin-labeled polynucleotides targeting sequences mapping in 18q21.31-q21.32* (chr18:56,021,766-56,202,885) proximal to the MALT1 breakpoint region2. Dinitrophenyl-labeled polynucleotides targeting sequences mapping in 18q21.32* (chr18:56,557,814-56,724,408) distal to the MALT1 breakpoint region 3. Formamide based hybridization buffer*according to Human Genome Assembly GRCh37/hg19
Storage Instruction:
Store at 2-8°C in an upright position. Return to storage conditions immediately after use.
Note:
The probe is intended to be used in combination with the CISH Implementation Kit 2 (Catalog #: KA5366), which provides necessary reagents for specimen pretreatment and post-hybridization processing.Hybridization signals of digoxigenin-labeled polynucleotides appear dark green distinct dot-shaped (proximal to the MALT1 breakpoint region), and dinitrophenyl-labeled polynucleotides appear bright red distinct dot-shaped (distal to the MALT1 breakpoint region).Normal situation: In interphases of normal cells or cells without a translocation involving the MALT1 gene region, two red/green fusion signals appear. Aberrant situation: One MALT1 gene region affected by a translocation is indicated by one separate green signal and one separate red signal. Other signal distribution may be observed in some abnormal samples which might result in a different signal pattern than described above, indicating variant rearrangements. Unexpected signal patterns should be further investigated.

This gene has been found to be recurrently rearranged in chromosomal translocation with two other genes - baculoviral IAP repeat-containing protein 3 (also known as apoptosis inhibitor 2) and immunoglobulin heavy chain locus - in mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphomas. The protein encoded by this gene may play a role in NF-kappaB activation. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene.
