Test Code LAB3798 ImmuneSeq Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID) DNA Sequencing
Clinical System Name
ImmuneSeq Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID) DNA Sequencing
Description
Clinical Features
Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) represents a group of rare disorders that result from a defect in T cell development or function and are characterized by recurrent infections beginning in early infancy (Kumrah et al., 2020). The laboratory findings associated with SCID include an arrest in T lymphocyte differentiation with variable abnormalities in B and natural killer (NK) cells (Fischer, 2000; Sukaiti et al., 2021). Classification of SCID is based on B cell status (T-B-SCID or T-B+SCID) and can be further divided based on NK cell status (Kumrah et al., 2020). X-linked SCID (X-SCID) represents a spectrum of disorders ranging from typical early-onset X-SCID that is fatal in affected males if not treated with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) to later-onset atypical X-SCID that results in variable immune dysregulation and/or autoimmunity (Allenspach et al., 2021). Assessment of T cell receptor excision circles (TRECs) using dried blood spots is an effective newborn screening method for identifying SCID or other forms of T cell lymphopenia and facilitates early intervention including HSCT or gene therapy (Allenspach et al., 2021; Kumrah et al., 2020). Although the diagnosis of SCID can be made based on the results of specific laboratory tests, genetic diagnosis has important implications for prognosis, pre-transplant treatment strategies, and genetic counseling.
The Seattle Children’s Hospital Molecular Laboratory offers testing of 149 genes for the Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID) panel. Reported genes are listed below.
Prevalence
The incidence of SCID is estimated to be approximately 1:58,000 infants based on 11 newborn screening programs in the United States (Allenspach et al., 2021).
Inheritance
SCID may occur de novo or may be inherited in an autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, or X-linked manner (Kumrah et al., 2020).

Additional testing options - we offer the following additional options for custom Immunodeficiency testing:
- Single-gene sequencing When there is strong clinical suspicion, any gene listed on our Immunodeficiency Expanded Panel is available as a single-gene sequencing test (order as Targeted Gene Next-Generation Sequencing (LAB3617))
- Reflex to expanded sequencing panel The option to reflex to the ImmuneSeq Expanded Panel when the focused panel test is non-diagnostic.
Please contact LabGC@seattlechildrens.org if you would like to order reflexive testing after the original testing report has been issued.

Methodology
Method: Next Generation Sequencing technology using an Illumina NextSeq instrument. Target region includes coding exons and a minimum of 10 bp of flanking intron boundaries of the genes tested. Target enrichment performed using a custom Integrated DNA Technologies (IDT) Exome Hyb Panel v2.
Average coverage ~150x.
Limitations:
This testing is performed on an exome backbone with analysis restricted to the panel genes. This method can detect single nucleotide variants (SNVs), small deletions, small insertions, and copy number variants in the regions targeted. Some regions cannot be efficiently captured due to sequence homology or sequence properties. This method will not detect large insertions and deletions, complex indels, structural variants (e.g. inversions, translocations), short tandem repeats, or other complex variants. Variants located outside of targeted regions will not be detected.
Based on validation studies, the bioinformatics pipeline showed precision and detection >99% for SNVs in regions with coverage greater than 20x and high mapping quality. Sensitivity for CNVs involving multiple genes is >99% and sensitivity for intragenic CNVs is >90%. Mosaic sequence variants present at <25% allele frequency may not be reliably detected, and detection sensitivity is dependent on the nature of the variant. The sensitivity of detection of mosaic copy number variants has not been evaluated.
Reported Gene Lists
The Seattle Children's Hospital Molecular Laboratory offers different immune disorder panels based on clinical presentation with additional testing options. Reported gene lists are below and detailed descriptions are available. All panels include copy number analysis and may identify mosaicism.
