nameSNRPN gene 15q11 deletion and duplication mutation analysis [Identifier] in Blood or Tissue by FISH Nominal
descriptionApproximately 70% of cases of Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) are caused by paternal deletion of the 15q11-q13 region. This region includes the small nuclear ribonucleoprotein polypeptide N (SNRPN) gene. This code is based on, but not limited to, Kreatech Diagnostic's MD Prader-Willi SNRPN (15q11) region probe to detect copy numbers of the SNRPN gene region at 15q11. Labs may report the X number of cells out of Y number that have the probe deletion (or duplication), which is usually 100% if present (i.e. 20 out of 20, 100%). Result are reported in ISCN (International System for Human Cytogenetic Nomenclature) format. This test does not detect uniparental disomy (UPD, LOINC 34503-3), which may also cause PWS (and Angelman syndrome, AS).

Fully-Specified Name

componentSNRPN gene 15q11 deletion+duplication
propertyPrid  =  Presence or identity:  Prid stands for “Presence or identity”, is used for assays that detect whether or not an analyte of a particular kind is present, and if it is, to identify the specific analyte.
timePt  =  Point in time:  To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements.
systemBld/Tiss
    Bld  =  Whole blood
    Tiss  =  Tissue, unspecified
scaleNom  =  Nominal:  Nominal or categorical responses that do not have a natural ordering. (e.g., names of bacteria, reported as answers, categories of appearance that do not have a natural ordering, such as, yellow, clear, bloody.
