COMT-YPEL1 Fusion FISH Probe

The COMT-YPEL1 Fusion FISH Probe is used to confirm a fusion of the COMT and YPEL1 genes. The fusion of the COMT and YPEL1 genes has been associated with Adrenocortical Carcinoma. These probes are FISH confirmed on normal peripheral blood in both interphase nuclei and metaphase spreads before shipment. Typical turnaround time for this product is 7-14 days after purchase.

** This product is for in vitro and research use only. This product is not intended for diagnostic use. Please note that both genes fall on the same chromosome and inter-chromosomal detection may be difficult to detect depending on the genes proximity to one another. Please consult our support staff before ordering this product to ensure that the probe can be designed to meet your specific needs.

Turnaround Time: 7-10 Business Days    Shipping Time: 1-2 Day Expedited Shipping

COMT Gene Summary

Catechol-O-methyltransferase catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group from S-adenosylmethionine to catecholamines, including the neurotransmitters dopamine, epinephrine, and norepinephrine. This O-methylation results in one of the major degradative pathways of the catecholamine transmitters. In addition to its role in the metabolism of endogenous substances, COMT is important in the metabolism of catechol drugs used in the treatment of hypertension, asthma, and Parkinson disease. COMT is found in two forms in tissues, a soluble form (S-COMT) and a membrane-bound form (MB-COMT). The differences between S-COMT and MB-COMT reside within the N-termini. Several transcript variants are formed through the use of alternative translation initiation sites and promoters. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2008]

Gene Name: Catechol-O-methyltransferase

Chromosome: CHR22: 19929262 -19957498

Locus: 22q11.21

YPEL1 Gene Summary

This gene is located in the region associated with DiGeorge syndrome on chromosome 22. The encoded protein localizes to the centrosome and nucleolus and may play a role in the regulation of cell division. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2015]
