Seraseq® Whole Transcriptome RNA Seq Mix

INTRODUCTION

Whole transcriptome RNA sequencing allows for the analysis of fusion genes with potential clinical utility that currently cannot be detected using the limited genomic coverage of targeted NGS panels. Additionally, some clinical cancer testing labs are evaluating whole transcriptome panels for improved diagnostic yields and clinical utilization for NGS-based tumor profiling test reimbursements. Expanding fusion gene content and higher detection efficiencies will expand use of fusion analysis in clinical NGS applications. Maybe most importantly is that new therapies are targeting fusion genes as clinical biomarkers for treatments of various adult and pediatric cancers.

SeraCare has developed a novel whole transcriptome RNA sequencing reference material for analysis of 22 fusion genes with clinical applications in oncology as analyzed by a whole transcriptome NGS assay. Such assays provide a comprehensive view of the transcriptome with ability to detect known and novel fusions of clinical utility. This reference material is offered as a purified RNA mix with high titer concentration for all 22 RNA fusion constructs.
