Description: The goal of the Genetic Testing Reference Materials Coordination Program (GeT-RM) is to coordinate a self-sustaining community process to improve the availability of appropriate and characterized reference materials for: Quality control (QC), Proficiency testing (PT), Test development & validation, Research. The purpose of this program is: - To help the genetic testing community obtain appropriate and characterized reference materials - To facilitate and coordinate information exchange between users and providers of QC and reference materials - To coordinate efforts for contribution, development, characterization and distribution of reference materials for genetic testing Get-RM provides information about cell lines, DNA, and other kinds of materials that could be used as reference materials for molecular genetic testing. Some of these materials have been characterized by the GeT-RM program and can be divided into three categories: - Genetic Inherited Disease & Pharmacogenetics This section includes information about cell lines, DNA, and other samples that can be used as reference materials for various inherited diseases (including cystic fibrosis, fragile X, Huntington disease, and Ashkenazi Jewish-related diseases), pharmacogenetic loci, and biochemical genetics. The GeT-RM program has confirmed the genotype of many of the genomic DNA samples through testing in multiple clinical genetic laboratories. - Molecular Oncology This section includes information about commercially available cell lines, DNA, and other kinds of materials that could be used as reference materials for various types of cancers, including leukemia/lymphoma and solid tumors. - Infectious Disease This section includes information about commercially available cell lines, DNA, and other kinds of materials that could be used as reference materials for various infectious disease pathogens including viruses, bacteria, and protozoa.
