DPYS Gene Dihydropyrimidinuria Genetic Test
Cost: 4400.0 AED
Test Details:
The DPYS gene is responsible for producing an enzyme called dihydropyrimidinase. Dihydropyrimidinase is involved in the breakdown of certain compounds called pyrimidines, which are building blocks of DNA and RNA.
Dihydropyrimidinuria is a rare genetic disorder characterized by the inability to break down dihydropyrimidines properly, leading to the accumulation of these compounds in the body. This condition can cause various symptoms, including intellectual disability, seizures, developmental delay, and abnormal urine odor.
NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a method used to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the case of dihydropyrimidinuria, NGS genetic testing can be used to identify mutations or variations in the DPYS gene that may be responsible for the condition.
By identifying specific genetic changes in the DPYS gene, NGS testing can help confirm a diagnosis of dihydropyrimidinuria and provide information about the specific genetic variant causing the condition. This information can be useful for genetic counseling, family planning, and potentially guiding treatment options in the future.
