IllnessHT amedes STANDARD heterozygosity test

NGS + X

Based on professional recommendations (1), amedes offers a NGS panel to detect pathogenic variations associated with autosomal recessive and X-linked diseases. It includes 113 genes and their associated inherited diseases. The cut-off value for inclusion is a heterozygote frequency of ≥1:200 for autosomal recessive diseases (based on at least one U.S. subpopulation (2)).

The cumulative carrier frequency for at least one pathogenic variant in individuals or pairs (= pairs with pathogenic variants in at least one identical gene) depends strongly on the ethnicity and the degree of the relatedness (2). These values range between 19.9% and 51% for individuals and 0.3% and 17.2% for pairs with different degrees of relatedness.

The probability for individual gene carriership and gene carriership within couples according to ethnicity and degree of relationship (autosomal recessive diseases)

AFR: Africans, AMR: American Hispanics, EAS: East asians, SAS: South asians, NFE: Europeans except Finland, ASJ: Ashkenazi Jews

Relationship coefficients for pairs: 1/4 = uncle-niece and aunt-nephew; 1/8 = cousin-cousin first degree; 1/32 = cousin-cousin second degree
