Diagnostics/Test portfolio/Single Gene Analysis

DIAGNOSTIC METHODS

Single Gene Analysis

Sequence analysis of a selected gene, with deletion/duplication methods available for many genes.

STARTING MATERIAL

1–2 ml EDTA blood or 1–2 µg genomic DNA. Alternative material must be confirmed before collection or shipment.

METHOD / ANALYTICAL SCOPE

Sanger sequencing or another established gene-specific method; MLPA, qPCR, or fragment analysis where appropriate.

MEDICAL REPORT

Clinically interpreted result for the requested gene and confirmed variant types.

TURNAROUND

Usually under 4 weeks; prenatal cases are typically about 2 weeks after accepted sample receipt.

CLINICAL VALUE

Where this test is strongest

More than 700 established single-gene analyses in the referenced portfolio

Deletion/duplication analysis for more than 350 genes

Focused and efficient when the hypothesis is strong

Prenatal route available

LIMITATIONS

What must remain visible

!The requested gene must fit the phenotype.

!A broader panel or exome can be better for genetically heterogeneous disease.

GENE & ANALYTICAL SCOPE

Scope confirmed per case

The gene and included variant types are confirmed per request.

Requested geneCase-specific analytical scope
+

Enter the gene in the enquiry; sequencing and deletion/duplication coverage are confirmed before testing.

No fixed gene-by-gene list applies to this scope.

BEFORE ORDERING

Confirm the current laboratory specification.

The official case review and quotation confirm eligibility, accepted material, validated coverage and variant classes, consent, turnaround, price, and report pathway.
