Single ExomeXtra®

Full diagnostic power — no parental samples required

Single ExomeXtra® is designed for patients with complex, heterogeneous, or unspecific symptoms when parental samples are unavailable. It combines the depth of whole exome sequencing, the reach of whole genome sequencing, and the CNV detection of array CGH in a single test.

Is your patient insured in Germany? Our colleagues at the Zentrum für Humangenetik Tübingen will gladly support you!

The Benefits of Our ExomeXtra® at a Glance

Better than exome

Detect 20% more disease-causing variants compared to standard WES

Smarter than genome

Deeper coverage where it counts — detecting variant classes that standard WGS does not reliably capture

CNV detection at array-CGH resolution

Genome-wide detection of deletions and duplications

Reports with direct clinical impact

Variants interpreted in context, with actionable recommendations — created by our interdisciplinary team

Service Details

Scope of Analaysis

  • All coding regions
  • <46,000 non-coding disease-associated regions (deep intronic, regulatory)
  • Non-coding RNA genes
  • Mitochondrial genome (mtDNA)
  • Upstream splice sites
  • Mosaic variant detection
  • Genome-wide CNV detection

Medical Report Includes

  • All relevant variant types: sequence variants (SNV, indel), small copy-number variants (CNV), and large aneuploidies – including mosaic variants
  • Variants of ACMG classes 3, 4, and 5 — classified and interpreted in the context of your patient’s phenotype
  • Variants of uncertain significance (VUS) further classified by likelihood of pathogenic effect
  • Direct recommendations for clinical management and further testing, where applicable
  • Assessment of genetic relevance for family planning Bearbeitet

Optional Add-On Services

  • Analysis of all ACMG genes

  • Pharmacogenetic analysis including dosing information

Sample Report

Our Standard Sample Requirements

  • 1 ml–2 ml EDTA blood (recommended sample type)
  • Genomic DNA (1 µg–2 µg)
  • DBS cards, buccal swabs, or saliva are also possible

Here you can find more information on how to ship your sample safely.

Other sample material sources are possible on request. Please note: In case of insufficient sample quality, the analysis might fail. If you have more than one option of samples, please contact us (diagnostic-support@cegat.com) and we will assist you in choosing the optimal sample for your patient.
