FORM 1- Instructions for submission of specimen for DNA testing
The patient should be fully informed about the test.
Nature of the test/Methodology: The test detects mutations in the gene(s) involved in
the synthesis of proteins of connective tissue using Sanger sequencing. Sanger
sequencing is highly sensitive and currently the gold standard of mutation detection (i.e.
point mutations, splicing mutations, small exon/intron insertions and deletions and small
indels.) Blood or extracted DNA from blood or tissue is required.
Test limitations: Only the gene implicated in the disorder will be studied. This will be
determined by your health care provider. Mutations in other genes will not be detected.
The rate of mutation detection varies with the disorder and the gene studied. Mutations
in non-structural portions of the gene will generally not be detected.
Test results/TAT: The test results are reported to the physician in writing. The test
generally takes about 2 weeks; we try to expedite the analysis for prenatal testing.
Sample requirements
•Whole Blood: 10 cc (adults) in purple top (EDTA) tube should be drawn by venipuncture. In the case of
small children, 3-5cc of EDTA blood is generally a sufficient amount to complete the analysis. There are no
special dietary or blood drawing considerations. Patient must not have received a massive transfusion
recently. Heparin inhibits the PCR reaction; therefore heparin tubes are not acceptable. DNA extracted
from heparin-contaminated blood is not accepted. DNA extracted from EDTA whole blood is always
acceptable.
•Fibroblasts, amniocytes, CVS: Preferably 2-4 confluent T25-flasks of cultured cells. It is highly
advisable to call prior to submitting cultured cells.
•Tissues: Please call the lab at 504-988-7706. We do not take whole tissue or paraffin blocks. We do
accept extracted DNA from tissues, but not from paraffin blocks.
Sample submission
\
Sample should be shipped by overnight courier, preferably Federal Express. Please send with a cold
pack during summer months. If blood sample can’t be shipped the same day, please store at +4C until
shipment. All tubes/flasks should be labeled with patient name and date of birth, or other identifying
criteria. Please do not send any samples on Friday. Patient Information Form (Form 2), Payment
Information Form (Form 3). If laboratory fee is paid by check that accompanies the sample, Form 3 is not
needed. Checks should be made out to Tulane University. We can assist with test description and related
information for insurance companies.
