Lysosomal Storage Disorders Panel
Use
This test is intended for individuals who exhibit features suggestive of a lysosomal storage disorder or who have a clinical or suspected diagnosis of such conditions. It is particularly useful for patients who have inconclusive results from enzyme analysis or single gene sequencing and those whose phenotype suggests overlapping lysosomal storage disorders. The panel includes comprehensive sequencing of 146 genes associated with these disorders, providing valuable insights for diagnosis and management.

Limitations
While this test provides extensive coverage of lysosomal storage disorders, it is limited by the analytical constraints of Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) and CNV analysis platforms. Variants in genes not covered by the panel may be missed, and certain types of genomic alterations like deep intronic variants, large in/dels, or certain CNVs may not be detected. The accuracy of detecting mosaicism is also limited, and clinical correlation with observed variants is essential.
