Whole mRNA transcriptome sequence analysis in Blood or Tissue by Sequencing
Active
Term Description
Whole mRNA transcriptome analysis by sequencing (RNA-Seq) is performed to determine what effect, if any, variants of unknown significance (VUS) may have on gene expression under specific circumstances or in a specific cell. Effect on the transcripts include a splice site defect, an inclusion of a pseudo-exon, exclusion of a real exon or loss of expression of the gene. Whole RNA transcriptome analysis is used in cancer diagnostics as well as other conditions to assess the functional impact of a variant on gene expression. While RNA-Seq studies looks at RNA transcribed from (mostly) exonic regions of DNA, whole exome sequencing studies [LOINC: 86205-2] look directly at the DNA contained in exonic regions of the genome. This term was created for, but not limited in use to, the submitter's MNG Whole Transcriptome assay, which is used to assess all genes in mRNA that are expressed in the specimen and identify changes that could be associated with the patient's clinical presentation. It is recommended that RNA-Seq assays are performed in the context of DNA sequencing results since some variants may not be detected in RNA.

Part Description
LP150045-5 Sequencing
Sequencing is a method used to determine the sequence of individual genes, larger genetic regions (i.e. clusters of genes or operons), full chromosomes or entire genomes. Historically, most sequencing has been performed using the chain termination method developed by Frederick Sanger in 1977. PMID: 271968 Sequencing technologies have improved dramatically, making them cheaper, faster, and more accurate. Next-generation sequencing (NGS), also known as high-throughput sequencing, deep sequencing, and second-generation sequencing, is a type of technology that uses parallel sequencing of multiple small fragments of DNA to determine sequence. This "high-throughput" technology has increased the speed and amount of DNA sequenced at a significantly reduced cost. PMID: 18576944 Several NGS platforms (ie, sequencing instruments and associated reagents) have been developed. Third-generation sequencing is another methodology currently under development that uses parallel sequencing similar to NGS. In contrast to NGS, third-generation sequencing uses single DNA molecules rather than amplified DNA as a template. PMID: 20858600
