1 Comprehensive genetic testing for hearing and vision loss

2

3 Hearing and vision loss can result from both genetic and non-genetic etiologies In general, there is a genetic basis for up to 50% of prelingual hearing loss and up to 60% of congenital blindness among infants. Indications for genetic testing for deafness and/or vision loss may include Clinical status: To confirm a clinical diagnosis in an affected patient, in an individual with unknown status (who has not received screening or evaluation), or in unaffected relatives of an affected patient (who have had normal screenings and/or evaluations). The purpose of the test may be diagnostic, carrier testing, familial follow-up on a known family variant, or prenatal testing for known variant(s) Treatment: To clarify the cause of hearing and/or vision loss, provide information on the likelihood of related health issues, and guide treatment Family risk: To establish risk to other family members and future generations. Genetic testing can help family members who are susceptible to certain drugs avoid drug-induced hearing loss. For example, aminoglycoside drugs can cause hearing loss in individuals with mutations in the MT-RNR1 gene. Furthermore, testing can confirm syndromic conditions, enabling early detection and surveillance for defects in other organs The disorders included in our hearing and vision loss panels may be inherited in an autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, or X-linked manner For genes displaying an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance, an affected parent carrying the mutated gene has a 1 in 2 chance of passing the variant on to a child, regardless of gender. Some of these genes are not fully penetrant, meaning that an individual may have a mutated gene. but not display any signs or symptoms of the disorder. Additionally, these disorders may have variable expressivity. For diseases with autosomal recessive inheritance, there is a 1 in 4 chance of having a child who is affected by the disease if both parents are carriers. The parents of an affected child are most often obligate carriers (heterozygotes) and each carry one mutant allele, unless a de novo mutation occurs. An X-linked inheritance means that there is a 1 in 2 chance that a male child will be affected by the disorder if the mother carries an X-linked mutation. Depending on the X-inactivation pattern of the gene, a mother and her daughters rarely may be affected. Although X-linked diseases are normally transmitted from mother to son, transmission of an X-linked mutation will occur from an affected father to each daughter, but will not occur from father to son.

4 Genetic testing options for hearing and vision loss The Comprehensive Hearing and Vision Loss Panel detects pathogenic variants in 308 genes.

Do not freeze specimens Please ship specimens same day or overnight to: 1428 Madison Ave, Atran Bldg, Rm 2-25, New York, NY Turnaround time Prenatal: 7-10 business days from receipt of specimen Pediatric or adult: 3-4 weeks from receipt of specimen

8 Advanced genomic technology for highly-accurate results Next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology is ideal for diagnostic testing of these disorders due to the extreme locus heterogeneity and phenotype overlap of the genes involved. Our customizable targeted NGS panel uses Agilent SureSelect target enrichment and Illumina HiSeq sequencing. The sensitivity of this panel is estimated at 99% for single-base substitutions. If indicated, Sanger sequencing may be performed in both directions using BigDye Terminator chemistry with the ABI 3730 DNA analyzer with target specific amplicons. It may also be used to supplement specific guaranteed target regions that fail NGS sequencing or as a confirmatory method for NGS positive results. NGS technology may not detect all small insertions or deletions. Additionally, it is not diagnostic for large duplications or deletions, repeat expansions, and structural genomic variation. Therefore, multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) and oligonucleotide array comparative genomic hybridization (acgh) are available for this test for deletion/duplication analysis. MLPA copy number analysis is available for the DFNB1 (GJB2/GJB6) locus, OTOA, and STRC. This MLPA testing is approximately 99% accurate. The customized oligonucleotide microarray is a highly-targeted, exon-focused array capable of detecting microdeletions and microduplications at a much higher resolution than traditional acgh methods. The sensitivity of the acgh assay is estimated to be greater than 99% for medically-relevant microdeletions and microduplications in the exonic regions of 304 genes. Please contact for additional information or questions about this test. NGS technology may not detect all small insertions/deletions and is not diagnostic for large duplications/deletions, repeat expansions, and structural genomic variation. This test will only detect variants within the exons and the intron-exon boundaries of the target genes. The following regions were excluded from NGS analysis due to limitations of NGS: ESPN exons 3 and 7, OTOA exons 19 to 27, RP1L1 exon 4, STRC exons 1 to 29, and TRIOBP exon 7. NGS of the MT-RNR1 gene is limited to targeted variant analysis of variants chrm:1494c>t and chrm:1555a>g. acgh technology cannot detect balanced rearrangements or imbalances that are below the resolution of this array. This technology will also not detect point mutations or small insertion/deletions below this array s resolution. Copy number variation of MT-RNR1, P2RX2, STRC, and RAB28 will not be reported using acgh. sema4.com 2018 Mount Sinai Genomics, Inc. D/B/A Sema4. All rights reserved. LLP0204GE0418
