This assay is used to detect these alternative RNA fusions and variants in the following genes: common variants in BRAF, IKZF1, IL7R, JAK1, JAK3, KRAS, NRAS, and SH2B3, and fusion transcripts involving rearrangements of ABL1, ABL2, BLNK3, CBL3, CRLF2, CSF1R, DGKH3, EPOR, FGFR1, FLT3, IKZF1, IL2RB, JAK2, LYN3, NTRK3, PDGFRA, PDGFRB, PTK2B, TSLP, and TYK2.
Results Reported: Fusion or variants detected.
