One Known Familial Variant in a Nuclear Gene
Use
This test provides targeted variant analysis of a single known familial variant in a nuclear gene previously identified in a proband, intended to confirm carrier or familial risk status in relatives or for diagnostic confirmation. According to the Genetic Testing Registry (GTR) entry, it is used for confirmation of mutations identified previously.

Special Instructions

Limitations
Performance is limited to detection of the specified known variant in a nuclear gene; the test does not detect other variants, novel mutations, or mitochondrial variants. Analytic validity indicates high sensitivity (>99%) via bi-directional Sanger sequencing, but coverage is restricted to the familial mutation.
