Alagille Syndrome

  • JAG1 (jagged 1)
We offer comprehensive JAG1 testing, including full gene sequencing and deletion/duplication analysis, which is expected to identify a disease-causing mutation/deletion in 94% of patients with Alagille syndrome. Testing is offered in two tiers; tier 1 includes sequence analysis of exons 1-6, 9, 12, 16, 17, 20, 23 and 24 (identifies a mutation in 77% of patients), and targeted array CGH analysis (ExonArrayDx) with exon-level resolution (identifies a deletion/duplication of one or more exons of JAG1 in 6-7% of patients). Tier 2 analysis encompasses sequencing of the remaining exons of the JAG1 gene (7, 8, 10, 11, 13-15, 18, 19, 21, 22, 25 and 26). Mutation-specific testing of family members and prenatal diagnosis is available once the mutation in a family has been defined.

FISH testing for Alagille syndrome is also available as a separate test. Please use our Molecular Cytogenetics Sample Submission Form.
