GeneSeq® PLUS
Also known as: Full gene sequencing, partner testing, gene specific sequencing
Use
Single gene analysis is available for all genes included in any Inheritest® or GeneSeq®: Cardio panel except for SMN1 and FMR1. To order single gene analysis, use Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) [481630] and Fragile X Syndrome, Carrier [481684].
Special Instructions
Not provided.
Limitations
This test does not detect germline mosaicism, large chromosomal aberrations including rearrangements and gene fusions, or variants in regions or genes not included. Variant classification and interpretation may change over time. False positive or negative results may occur due to rare genetic variants, pseudogene interference, blood transfusions, bone marrow transplantation, somatic or tissue-specific mosaicism, mislabeled samples, or erroneous representation of family relationships. The test has not been cleared or approved by the FDA.
