SNPlex™ Genotyping System:A New High Throughput Solution
What is the SNPlex™ System?
Assay based on multiplexed Oligonucleotide Ligation Assay (OLA) and PCR technology Highly specific High order multiplexing Robust
Utilizes universal assay reagents Ready to use components (includes buffers, enzymes and assay controls)-no
preparation required Streamline workflow Consistent, reproducible results
Compatible with common laboratory equipment Based upon the Applied Biosystems 3730 and 3730xl
DNA analyzers 48 and 96 capillary configuration 15 minute read-out (36 cm capillaries) 36cm Array & POP-7 used
Assay Chemistry: Triple Ligation
The SNPlexTM Assay
Utilizes:– 3 unique unlabeled ligation probes per SNP
locus– Universal linker sets in multiplex OLA– Two unlabeled universal PCR primers for
PCR amplification– Universal set of dye labeled mobility
modifiers (ZipChute™ probes) that are identified by CE
– Universal reagent kits
Basic Assay Steps
EncodingGeneration of genotype (GT) specific products
through multiplex oligonucleotide ligation reaction (OLA)
AmplificationMultiplex PCR with universal primers
DecodingHybridization of universal ZipChute probes to
amplicons and identification of eluted ZipChutes by CE

comments
• We are working on DNA quality/quantity assessment, as well as whole genome amplification quantitation
• Quantitation : Real Time PCR preferred.
comments
• Separation of pre and post-PCR area is a key point

Function of ZipChute Probes
• The same Universal ZipChute mix is used for hybridization to each multiplex reaction.
• ZipChute probes that specifically hybridized to genotype specific single-stranded amplicons are eluted and analyzed by CE.
ZipChute identification is used for genotype determination.

Design Report Provides Comprehensive Summary
Why these 63 were not included?
Design Pipeline
• Genome Screen (BLAST)– Only for human targets
– Checks for uniqueness of sequence
• Assay Rules (probe design)– Checks for poly-weak bases (A/T – more than 9 in a row)
– Checks for poly-G (more than 5 in a row)
• Pooling Rules– Looks for cross-reactivity between assay components (probes,
ZipChutes, linkers, DNA)
• Small Multiplex– Not enough SNPs to manufacture an additional multiplex pool
– Current limit is 24
Should “failed” SNPs be resubmitteed?• Genome Screen: NO
– If it’s not unique today, it won’t be unique tomorrow
• Assay Rules: NO– Probe design will not change unless the design pipeline
changes
• Pooling Rules: YES– Some SNPs may work in larger submissions or in
combination with other SNPs
• Small Multiplex: YES– These SNPs are good! There were just too few of them.
What do you need?
• A 3730xl• A dedicated capillary array• GeneMapper v3.5
• 2 separates rooms• Appropiate robotics and thermocyclers
• A probe set submitted• A starter kit : all included except probes
