Variant Interpretation:
What is the protocol for interpreting a variation as a VUS?
Help
Our variant classification system is based on the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics guidelines (Genet Med. 2015 May;17(5):405-24). This includes evaluating the variant using in gene-specific mutation databases, gnomAD, dbSNP, and in silico prediction software (SIFT, PolyPhen).

Are family members with defined clinical status recruited to assess significance of VUS without charge?
Help
Decline to answer. Free testing for VUS in family members is offered on a case by case basis; information may be collected by the lab to see which family members are available and if their results will help assess for the significance of the variant.

This analysis includes the coding exons and flanking intron (+/-20 bp) sequences of 34 genes. The limit of variant allele detection is 1% at 2500x read depth and the threshold for mutation detection is set at 10 reads without strand bias. This technology cannot reliably detect mutations at coverage below …
