Ordering Guidance
Customization of this panel and single gene analysis for any gene present on this panel are available. For more information see CGPH/ Custom Gene Panel, Hereditary, Next-Generation Sequencing, Varies.
Targeted testing for familial variants (also called site-specific or known mutations testing) is available for the genes on this panel. See FMTT / Familial Variant, Targeted Testing, Varies. To obtain more information about this testing option, call 800-533-1710.
Additional Testing Requirements
All prenatal specimens must be accompanied by a maternal blood specimen; order MATCC / Maternal Cell Contamination, Molecular Analysis, Varies on the maternal specimen as this must be a different order number than the prenatal specimen.
Shipping Instructions
Specimen preferred to arrive within 96 hours of collection.

Useful For
Providing a genetic evaluation for patients with a personal or family history suggestive osteogenesis imperfecta and other hereditary conditions associated with bone fragility
Genetics Test Information
This test utilizes next-generation sequencing to detect single nucleotide and copy number variants in 25 genes associated with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) and other hereditary conditions associated with bone fragility: ALPL, ANO5, BMP1, COL1A1, COL1A2, CREB3L1, CRTAP, FKBP10, IFITM5, LRP5, MBTPS2, P3H1, P4HB, PLOD2, PLS3, PPIB, SEC24D, SERPINF1, SERPINH1, SP7, SPARC, TAPT1, TMEM38B, WNT1, and XYLT2. See Targeted Genes and Methodology Details for Osteogenesis Imperfecta and Bone Fragility Gene Panel and Method Description for additional details.
Identification of a disease-causing variant may assist with diagnosis, prognosis, clinical management, familial screening, and genetic counseling for OI and other hereditary conditions associated with bone fragility.
Prior Authorization is available for this assay.
Reflex Tests
| Test ID | Reporting Name | Available Separately | Always Performed |
|---|---|---|---|
| CULFB | Fibroblast Culture for Genetic Test | Yes | No |
| CULAF | Amniotic Fluid Culture/Genetic Test | Yes | No |
| MATCC | Maternal Cell Contamination, B | Yes | No |
Testing Algorithm
For prenatal specimens only:
-If amniotic fluid (nonconfluent cultured cells) is received, amniotic fluid culture will be added at an additional charge.
-If chorionic villus specimen (nonconfluent cultured cells) is received, fibroblast culture will be added at an additional charge.
For any prenatal specimen that is received, maternal cell contamination testing will be performed at an additional charge.

Method Description
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) and/or Sanger sequencing are performed to test for the presence of variants in coding regions and intron/exon boundaries of the genes analyzed, as well as some other regions that have known disease-causing variants. The human genome reference GRCh37/hg19 build was used for sequence read alignment. At least 99% of the bases are covered at a read depth over 30X. Sensitivity is estimated at above 99% for single nucleotide variants, above 94% for deletions-insertions (delins) less than 40 base pairs (bp), above 95% for deletions up to 75 bp and insertions up to 47 bp. NGS and/or a polymerase chain reaction-based quantitative method is performed to test for the presence of deletions and duplications in the genes analyzed.
There may be regions of genes that cannot be effectively evaluated by sequencing or deletion and duplication analysis as a result of technical limitations of the assay, including regions of homology, high guanine-cytosine (GC) content, and repetitive sequences. See Targeted Genes and Methodology Details for Osteogenesis Imperfecta and Bone Fragility Gene Panel for details regarding the targeted genes analyzed for each test and specific gene regions not routinely covered.(Unpublished Mayo method)
Confirmation of select reportable variants may be performed by alternate methodologies based on internal laboratory criteria.
