Technical Information
Test Comments: Help
Testing within the Molecular Genetics lab is restricted to two specific mutations: c.1054_1074del (p.Thr352_Arg358del) in exon 4 and c.1610+2delT (intronic) in intron 7.

Tests performed
Entire test performed in-house
Analytical Validity: Help
The sequences (in the forward and reverse direction) of the coding regions and flanking upstream and downstream 20 bases of the adjacent introns were analysed using Variant Reporter Software. The report has used sequences that have a minimum trace score of 35 which corresponds to an average false base call … View more
