Pricing Comments
This test is also offered via our exome backbone with CNV detection (click here). The exome-based test may be higher priced, but permits reflex to the entire exome or to any other set of clinically relevant genes.
An additional 25% charge will be applied to STAT orders. STAT orders are prioritized throughout the testing process.
Testing run on PG-Select capture probes does not include exome-wide CNV analysis. Reflex is available to PGxome or an exome-based panel, or you can use this gene list to create a custom panel (click here).

Turnaround Time
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
Kohlschutter-Tonz syndrome is characterized by severe global developmental delay, early-onset seizures, spasticity, and enamel defects which affect both primary and secondary dentitions (Schossig et al. 2012; Mory et al. 2012).
Genetics
Mutations in ROGDI cause autosomal recessive Kohlschutter-Tonz syndrome. The ROGDI protein coded by the ROGDI gene is a leucine-zipper protein containing a helix motif and a loop structure with unknown function (Mory et al. 2012; Schossig et al. 2012). It is widely expressed in multiple tissues with preferentially higher expression in adult brain, spinal cord, peripheral blood, heart and bone marrow (Mory et al. 2012). It is speculated that ROGDI protein interacts with DISC1, a protein involved in diverse cytoskeletal functions such as cytoskeletal stability, neuron-migration and cell division (Schossig et al. 2012). To date, only 9 unique pathogenic variants have been reported. They are: 2 nonsense, 2 splicing, and five small deletion or duplication (Mory et al. 2012; Schossig et al. 2012; Tucci et al.). A homozygous mutation c.469C>T (p.Arg157*) was detected in five affected consanguineous KTS families from a Druze village in northern Israel (Mory et al. 2012).
Clinical Sensitivity - Sequencing with CNV PG-Select
ROGDI mutations were identified in 5 out of 10 clinically diagnosed KTS families (Tucci et al. 2013). No large deletions and duplications have been reported (Human Gene Mutation Database).
Testing Strategy
This test provides full coverage of all coding exons of the ROGDI gene, plus ~10 bases of flanking noncoding DNA. We define full coverage as >20X NGS reads or Sanger sequencing.
Indications for Test
Candidates for this test are patients with phenotypes consistent with KTS such as cognitive disability, spasticity, epilepsy and enamel defect and the family members of patients who have known ROGDI mutations. This test may also be considered for the reproductive partners of individuals who carry pathogenic variants in ROGDI.
