DES-LCR Break Apart FISH Probe

Empire Genomics’ DES-LCR Break Apart FISH Probe is designed to flank the DES-LCR gene and is typically used for detecting DES-LCR rearrangements such as translocations. This probe is FISH confirmed on normal peripheral blood metaphase spreads and interphase nuclei. The probe comes labeled in green and orange by default, but may be customized to meet your needs.

Gene Summary

This region represents a locus control region (LCR) that regulates expression of the DES (desmin) gene, whereby it can confer copy number-dependent and position of integration-independent muscle-specific developmental expression on this gene. It is also thought, though not yet demonstrated, that this LCR may control expression of the preferentially muscle-expressed SPEG (SPEG complex locus) gene that exists downstream of the DES gene. This LCR is characterized by the presence of five major DNase I hypersensitive sites (HSs), which bind factors that mediate developmental expression of the DES gene. This region also includes a promoter-proximal enhancer that can drive DES gene expression in skeletal but not cardiac muscle. This LCR and enhancer region can drive expression of other muscle-specific genes, and it is a potential regulatory element for use in muscle-specific gene therapy vectors.
