Spinal muscular atrophy – determination of copy number of exon 7 and 8 in the SMN1 gene

Examination of SMN1 and SMN2 genes associated with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) by MLPA method. This concerns an autosomal recessive disease that is most often associated with homozygous deletion of exon 7 in the SMN1 gene (almost 95% of all patients with SMA).

Peripheral blood, Isolated DNA from blood

CarrierTest Custom (IM) for Donors

CarrierTest Custom (IM) for Donors is a crucial genetic screening test designed for gamete donors, analyzing 35 genes associated with the most common serious autosomal recessive and X-linked diseases in our population. This test is essential to minimize the risk of unknowingly passing on a severe genetic condition to the recipients' offspring.

Material:

Peripheral blood, Isolated DNA from blood …
Peripheral blood, Isolated DNA from blood, Buccal swab

Turnover Time:

cfDNA test GENNET

Screening of cell-free foetal DNA (cfDNA) from the blood of a pregnant woman to detect aneuploidy of sex and non-sex chromosomes of the aborted foetus and its gender. From week 10 of the pregnancy.

Material:

Peripheral blood

Turnover Time:

Cascade prenatal testing (by QF-PCR, array) excluding maternal contamination

Cascade aneuploidy testing of material after invasive prenatal examination using QF-PCR and array methods, excluding maternal contamination. This can be supplemented by foetal karyotyping, if necessary.

Chorionic villi, Amniotic fluid …
Chorionic villi, Amniotic fluid, Cord blood, Isolated DNA from chorionic villi, Isolated DNA from amniotic fluid, Isolated DNA from cordocentesis, DNA isolated from cultured cells

Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome – detection of the 3 most common mutations in the DHCR7 gene (p.Trp151Ter, p.Val326Leu and c.964-1G>C)

Screening of the 3 most common DHCR7 gene mutations: c.452G>A (p.Trp151Ter), c.976G>T (p.Val326Leu), c.964-1G>C (IVS8-1G>C) using Sanger sequencing, which represent about 81% of all mutations in patients with SLOS (Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome, OMIM 270400).

Clinical foetal exome (WES) (proband)

NGS analysis of exome (WES) and other clinically relevant regions of the foetal genome; we recommend simultaneously performing exome analysis also in the parents of the foetus – so-called trio analysis.
