IDUA Gene Mucopolysaccharidosis type 1H Genetic Test
Components: IDUA Gene Mucopolysaccharidosis type 1H Genetic Test
Price: 4400.0 AED
Sample Condition: Blood or Extracted DNA or One drop Blood on FTA Card
Report Delivery: 3 to 4 Weeks
Method: NGS Technology
Test Type: Metabolic Disorders
Doctor: General Physician
Test Department: Genetics
Pre Test Information: Clinical History of Patient who is going for IDUA Gene Mucopolysaccharidosis type 1H NGS Genetic DNA Test. A Genetic Counselling session to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with Mucopolysaccharidosis type 1H.
Test Details: The IDUA gene is associated with Mucopolysaccharidosis type 1H (MPS 1H), also known as Hurler syndrome. MPS 1H is a rare genetic disorder characterized by the deficiency of the enzyme alpha-L-iduronidase, which leads to the buildup of certain substances called glycosaminoglycans in the body’s cells and tissues. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) Genetic Test refers to a type of genetic testing that uses advanced sequencing technologies to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the context of MPS 1H, an NGS genetic test would involve sequencing the IDUA gene to identify any disease-causing mutations or variants. This type of genetic testing can help diagnose MPS 1H, confirm a suspected diagnosis, or identify carriers of the condition. It may also be used for prenatal testing or for screening family members of an affected individual. It is important to note that genetic testing for MPS 1H should be performed and interpreted by a qualified healthcare professional or genetic counselor, as the results can have significant implications for the individual and their family.
