Mutant allele assay–detects specific or
multiple mutant alleles. The assay name has the format: gene
symbol_COSMIC ID_mu (e.g. KRAS_517_mu).
Gene reference assay–detects a mutation-free
region of the gene within which the target mutations reside. The
assay name has the format: gene symbol_rf (e.g. KRAS_rf).
Wild type allele assay–detects a wild type
allele. The assay name has the format: gene symbol_COSMIC ID_wt (e.g.
KRAS_517_wt).
Note: Mutation detection experiments require running a mutant allele assay(s)
and corresponding gene reference assay for a given sample. For a subset of the
mutant allele assays, corresponding wild type allele assays are available that
can be used instead of a gene reference assay.
