Pricing Comments
Our favored testing approach is exome based NextGen sequencing with CNV analysis. This will allow cost effective reflexing to PGxome or other exome based tests. However, if full gene Sanger sequencing is desired for STAT turnaround time, insurance, or other reasons, please see link below for Test Code, pricing, and turnaround time information.
An additional 25% charge will be applied to STAT orders. STAT orders are prioritized throughout the testing process.

3 weeks on average for standard orders or 2 weeks on average for STAT orders.
Please note: Once the testing process begins, an Estimated Report Date (ERD) range will be displayed in the portal. This is the most accurate prediction of when your report will be complete and may differ from the average TAT published on our website. About 85% of our tests will be reported within or before the ERD range. We will notify you of significant delays or holds which will impact the ERD. Learn more about turnaround times here.

Clinical Features and Genetics
Clinical Features
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous skeletal disorder characterized by frequent bone fractures with or without minimal trauma. Clinical signs of OI can range from mild to severe. In addition to bone fractures, patients may have scoliosis, bowing of long bones, short stature, blue sclera, hearing loss, dentin defects, muscle weakness or joint laxity. The incidence is approximately 6-7/100,000 (Dijk et al. 2012). ~90% of clinically diagnosed OI is caused by mutations in the COL1A1 and COL1A2 genes, while ~10% is caused by mutations in the CRTAP, FKB10, P3H1, PLOD2, PPIB, SERPINF1, SERPINH1, SP7, WNT1, IFITM5, BMP1, TMEM38B and other undefined genes (Dijk et al. 2012; Valadares et al. 2014).
Genetics
Mutations in the P3H1 (also known as LEPRE1) gene cause a rare severe form of autosomal recessive type VIII OI, which is characterized by white sclerae, severe growth deficiency, extreme skeletal undermineralization, and bulbous metaphyses. LEPRE1 belongs to a family of collagen prolyl hydroxylases which are required in collagen biosynthesis, proper folding and protein assembly. To date, more than 20 unique causative mutations have been identified. They are mainly nonsense, splicing site and small deletion/insertion. Only one large deletion and one missense mutation in the P3H1 gene have been reported (Cabral et al. 2007; Baldridge et al. 2008; Caparrós-Martin et al. 2013; Human Gene Mutation Database).
Clinical Sensitivity - Sequencing with CNV PGxome
P3H1 mutations were identified in 2 out of 10 clinically diagnosed autosomal recessive OI families (Caparrós-Martin et al. 2013).
Testing Strategy
This test provides full coverage of all coding exons of the P3H1 gene plus 10 bases of flanking noncoding DNA in all available transcripts along with other non-coding regions in which pathogenic variants have been identified at PreventionGenetics or reported elsewhere. We define full coverage as >20X NGS reads or Sanger sequencing. PGnome panels typically provide slightly increased coverage over the PGxome equivalent. PGnome sequencing panels have the added benefit of additional analysis and reporting of deep intronic regions (where applicable).
Dependent on the sequencing backbone selected for this testing, discounted reflex testing to any other similar backbone-based test is available (i.e., PGxome panel to whole PGxome; PGnome panel to whole PGnome).
Indications for Test
Candidates for this test are patients with symptoms consistent with autosomal recessive OI type VIII, who have no mutations in the COL1A1 and COL1A2 genes and the family members of patients who have known P3H1 mutations. This test may also be considered for the reproductive partners of individuals who carry pathogenic variants in P3H1.
