Germline Genomics Profile

This profile inlcudes 22 data elements to capture the results from germline testing. The “Cytogenetic Location” sub-profile (not shown here) groups the elements for the cytogenetic location of the germline variant detected.

Data Element Data Type Description Terminology Required
germ_report_case_id_genomic String The ID number from the germline report N/A Required
germ_gene_name_hgnc CodeableConcept The gene name HGNC Required
germ_gene_id_hgnc_id CodeableConcept The gene id HGNC Required if known
germ_genome_assembly CodeableConcept The genome assembly HGNC Required if known
germ_cytogen_loc String The full cytogenetic location N/A Required if known
germ_cytogen_loc_chrom CodeableConcept The cytogenetic location (chromosome) Code Set Required
germ_cytogen_loc_start_pos Integer The cytogenetic location (start position) N/A Required
germ_cytogen_loc_end_pos Integer The cytogenetic (end position) N/A Required
germ_reference_allele CodeableConcept Reference Allele (A, T, C, G) Code Set Required
germ_altered_allele CodeableConcept Altered Allele (A, T, C, G) Code Set Required
germ_refseq_id CodeableConcept Range(s) of DNA sequence examined NCBI RefSeq Required if known
germ_ensembl_id CodeableConcept The Ensembl ID Ensembl Required if known
germ_mutation_class CodeableConcept The mutation classification Code Set Required
germ_nucleot_change_hgvs CodeableConcept The symbolic representation of a genetic variant reported using HGVS nomenclature (gHGVS) HGVS Required
germ_cdna_change_hgvs String The change in the coding DNA N/A Required
germ_aa_change_hgvs CodeableConcept The symbolic representation of an amino acid variant reported using HGVS nomenclature (pHGVS) HGVS Required
germ_dbsnp CodeableConcept The variation ID assigned by DBSNP NCBI dbSNP Required
germ_clinvar CodeableConcept The variation ID assigned by ClinVar NCBI ClinVar Required
germ_allelic_state CodeableConcept The classification of allelic state using one of the five provided codes LOINC Required
germline_variant_id CodeableConcept The classification of a germline variant according to pathogenicity LOINC Required
date_cur_germ_prof_gen Date Date of curation N/A Required if known
cur_by_germ_prof_gen String The name of the curator who modified the instrument N/A Required if known

Notes

1. This profile is repeatable and more than one records can be expected per patient
2. The “Code Set” is a custom set of codes defined by the JHU Team
