Molecular assay reagents intended to identify genetic variants associated with metachromatic leukodystrophy, a genetic disorder affecting lipid metabolism and characterized by the accumulation of sulfatides, which leads to progressive white matter loss throughout the nervous system. Genetic variants at multiple loci have been associated with metachromatic leukodystrophy. These reagents are intended to detect various types of genetic changes (e.g., deletions, duplications, insertions, single nucleotide polymorphisms) in multiple metachromatic leukodystrophy-associated loci simultaneously.
