HelpTest ID BCELL B-Cell and Antibody Deficiency Gene Panel, Varies
Ordering Guidance
Targeted testing for familial variants (also called site-specific or known variants testing) is available for the genes on this panel. See FMTT / Familial Variant, Targeted Testing, Varies. To obtain more information about this testing option, call 800-533-1710.
Shipping Instructions
Specimen preferred to arrive within 96 hours of collection.
Specimen Required
Patient Preparation: A previous bone marrow transplant from an allogenic donor will interfere with testing. Call 800-533-1710 for instructions for testing patients who have received a bone marrow transplant.
Submit only 1 of the following specimens:
Specimen Type: Whole blood
Container/Tube:
Preferred: Lavender top (EDTA) or yellow top (ACD)
Acceptable: Any anticoagulant
Specimen Volume: 3 mL
Collection Instructions:
1. Invert several times to mix blood.
2. Send whole blood specimen in original tube. Do not aliquot.
Specimen Stability Information: Ambient (preferred) 4 days/Refrigerated
Specimen Type: Skin biopsy
Supplies: Fibroblast Biopsy Transport Media (T115)
Container/Tube: Sterile container with any standard cell culture media (eg, minimal essential media, RPMI 1640). The solution should be supplemented with 1% penicillin and streptomycin.
Specimen Volume: 4-mm punch

Useful For
Providing a comprehensive genetic evaluation for patients with a personal or family history suggestive of an inherited primary B-cell disorder or humoral immunodeficiency
Establishing a diagnosis of a primary B-cell disorder or humoral immunodeficiency, allowing for appropriate management and surveillance for disease features based on the gene and/or variant involved
Identifying variants within genes known to be associated with primary B-cell disorders or humoral immunodeficiencies, allowing for predictive testing of at-risk family members
Genetics Test Information
This test utilizes next-generation sequencing to detect single nucleotide and copy number variants in 61 genes associated with inherited B-cell disorders and humoral immunodeficiency: ADA, ADA2, AICDA, ATP6AP1, BLNK, BTK, CARD11, CD19, CD27, CD40, CD40LG, CD70, CD79A, CD79B, CD81, CDCA7, CTLA4, CR2, CXCR4, DCLRE1C, DNMT3B, GATA2, ICOS, IGHM, IGLL1, IKBKG, IKZF1, IKZF3, IL21, IL21R, IRF2BP2, KDM6A, KMT2A, KMT2D, LIG1, LRBA, MOGS, MS4A1, NFKB1, NFKB2, PIK3CD, PIK3R1, PLCG2, PRKCD, RAC2, RAG1, RAG2, RNF168, SEC61A1, SH2D1A, SH3KBP1, SLC39A7, TCF3, TNFRSF13B, TNFRSF13C, TNFSF12, TNFSF13, TOP2B, TRNT1, UNG, and XIAP. See Targeted Genes and Methodology Details for B-Cell and Antibody Deficiency Gene Panel for details regarding the targeted gene regions evaluated by this test.
Identification of a disease-causing variant may assist with diagnosis, prognosis, clinical management, recurrence risk assessment, familial screening, and genetic counseling for inherited B-cell disorders and humoral immunodeficiency.
