CYP2R1 Gene Rickets vitamin D 25-hydroxylation-deficient type 1B Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the CYP2R1 Gene Rickets vitamin D 25-hydroxylation-deficient type 1B Genetic Test at a cost of 4400.0 AED. This test is designed to diagnose individuals suspected of having a deficiency in vitamin D metabolism.
Test Details
The CYP2R1 gene is responsible for the production of an enzyme called vitamin D 25-hydroxylase. This enzyme plays a crucial role in converting vitamin D to its active form, which is essential for maintaining calcium and phosphate levels in the body.
Rickets is a condition characterized by weak and brittle bones, often caused by a deficiency in vitamin D. Vitamin D deficiency can occur due to inadequate sunlight exposure, dietary deficiencies, or genetic mutations affecting the enzymes involved in vitamin D metabolism.
Our NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing method allows us to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the context of rickets, this test can identify mutations or variations in the CYP2R1 gene that may be associated with vitamin D 25-hydroxylation deficiency, type 1B.
By identifying specific genetic variations, our NGS testing can help diagnose the underlying cause of rickets in individuals suspected of having a deficiency in vitamin D metabolism. This information is crucial for determining appropriate treatment strategies and management plans for affected individuals.
