We offer family variant testing for all blood relatives of patients who undergo full single gene sequencing, multigene panel testing or exome sequencing at Ambry Genetics and are found to have a pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant. Testing must be completed within 90 days of the original report date. Whenever possible, more closely related relatives should be tested before more distant relatives. If you or a family member are interested in learning more about our family testing program or when family testing may be clinically indicated, please contact us or your provider for additional information. Note that Ambry can only provide such family testing services to patients receiving medical care in the U.S or US territories.
Order NowOur SBDS full gene sequence analysis is performed by PCR-based double stranded automated sequencing in the sense and antisense directions for exons 1-5 of the SBDS gene, plus at least 5 bases into the 5’ and 3’ ends of all the introns. The assay design prevents unwanted amplification of the pseudogene.
