Section being updated

We are gathering the most up-to-date information on Italian centres that perform Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) for the diagnosis of ReNU Syndrome. This section will be updated once the Scientific Committee has completed validation of the recommended diagnostic pathways.

In the meantime, to receive information on available diagnostic centres in Italy, you can contact us directly:

⚠️ Important Note

In Italy, Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) is needed to diagnose RNU4-2. WES cannot detect it!

WGS vs WES

WGS – Whole Genome Sequencing

Analyzes the entire DNA sequence, including non-coding genes like RNU4-2. REQUIRED to diagnose ReNU Syndrome.

WES – Whole Exome Sequencing

Only analyzes coding regions. CANNOT detect variants in RNU4-2!
