NEUROD1 Gene Maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 6 Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the NEUROD1 Gene Maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 6 Genetic Test for the diagnosis of MODY6. This test helps in identifying mutations in the NEUROD1 gene that are associated with the development of maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 6.
Test Details
The NEUROD1 gene plays a crucial role in the development and function of insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. Mutations in this gene have been linked to MODY6, a rare form of diabetes that typically starts before the age of 25 and is characterized by impaired insulin production.
Our NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes, including the NEUROD1 gene. By analyzing the DNA sequence of the NEUROD1 gene, our NGS genetic testing can detect specific mutations or variants that may be associated with MODY6.

Pre Test Information
Prior to the test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient who is going for the NEUROD1 Gene Maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 6 NGS Genetic DNA Test. Additionally, a Genetic Counselling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with Maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 6.
Importance of the Test
NGS genetic testing for MODY6 is essential for the diagnosis and management of individuals with suspected or confirmed MODY6. It also provides valuable information for genetic counseling and family planning.
It is crucial to note that NGS genetic testing for MODY6 should be performed in specialized genetic testing laboratories and requires a healthcare provider’s order. The results of the genetic test should be interpreted by a qualified healthcare professional who can provide appropriate counseling and guidance based on the individual’s specific situation.

Test Details |
The NEUROD1 gene is a gene that plays a crucial role in the development and function of insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. Mutations in this gene have been associated with a form of diabetes called maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 6 (MODY6). Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a rare form of diabetes that typically starts before the age of 25 and is characterized by impaired insulin production. MODY6 is specifically caused by mutations in the NEUROD1 gene, which disrupt the normal function of insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a type of genetic testing that allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes or even the entire genome. In the context of MODY6, NGS genetic testing can be used to identify mutations in the NEUROD1 gene that may be responsible for the development of the disease. By analyzing the DNA sequence of the NEUROD1 gene, NGS genetic testing can detect specific mutations or variants that may be associated with MODY6. This information can help in the diagnosis and management of individuals with suspected or confirmed MODY6, as well as provide valuable information for genetic counseling and family planning. It is important to note that NGS genetic testing for MODY6 is typically performed in specialized genetic testing laboratories and requires a healthcare provider’s order. The results of the genetic test should be interpreted by a qualified healthcare professional who can provide appropriate counseling and guidance based on the individual’s specific situation. |
