Paragangliomas (PGL) Genetic Testing Panel Overview | PGLNext® | Ambry Genetics

Learn more about this test at: https://www.ambrygen.com/clinician/ge... PGLNext is a next generation sequencing panel that simultaneously analyzes 12 genes associated with an increased risk of developing paragangliomas (PGLs) and/or pheochromocytomas (PCCs). Test Description PGLNext analyzes 12 genes (listed above). All genes are evaluated by next generation sequencing (NGS) or Sanger sequencing of all coding domains, and well into the flanking 5’ and 3’ ends of all the introns and untranslated regions. Clinically significant intronic findings beyond 5 base pairs are always reported. Intronic variants of unknown or unlikely clinical significance are not reported beyond 5 base pairs from the splice junction. Additional Sanger sequencing is performed for any regions missing or with insufficient read depth coverage for reliable heterozygous variant detection. Reportable small insertions and deletions, potentially homozygous variants, variants in regions complicated by pseudogene interference, and single nucleotide variant calls not satisfying 100x depth of coverage and 40% het ratio thresholds are verified by Sanger sequencing.1 Gross deletion/duplication analysis is performed for the covered exons and untranslated regions of all 12 genes using read-depth from NGS data with confirmatory multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) and/or targeted chromosomal microarray.
