Additional Information

  • Total RNA from a cell line engineered to contain desired fusion RNA.
  • This is for laboratories using RNAseq to detect gene fusion transcripts.
  • This is not intended to replace the current program (SARC) for reverse transcription (RT)-PCR based detection.
  • Potential fusion variants include: CD74::ROS1, EML4::ALK, ETV6::NTRK3, FGFR3::TACC3, PAX8::PPARG, SLC45A3::BRAF.
  • Specific intragenic fusion/exon skipping variants may also be included, specifically EGFRvIII and MET exon 14 skipping.

Program Information

  • Three 500-ng RNA (20 ng/μL) specimens
