MR1 Gene Major Histocompatibility Complex 1 Deficiency Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the MR1 Gene Major Histocompatibility Complex 1 (MHC1) Deficiency Genetic Test. This test helps in the diagnosis of MHC1 deficiency, a condition caused by a mutation or deficiency in the MR1 gene.
Test Details
The MR1 gene, also known as Major Histocompatibility Complex 1 (MHC1)-related gene 1, plays a crucial role in the immune system. MHC1 molecules present antigens to immune cells, initiating an immune response against infected or abnormal cells. In MHC1 deficiency, there is a decreased or absent expression of MHC1 molecules on the cell surface due to a mutation or deficiency in the MR1 gene.
Our MR1 Gene Major Histocompatibility Complex 1 Deficiency Genetic Test utilizes Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. This allows us to identify mutations or variations in the MR1 gene that may be responsible for the deficiency.
Test Components and Price
The MR1 Gene Major Histocompatibility Complex 1 Deficiency Genetic Test is priced at 4400.0 AED. The test can be performed on blood samples, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card.
Report Delivery
After the sample is received, the report will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks.
Test Type and Department
The MR1 Gene Major Histocompatibility Complex 1 Deficiency Genetic Test falls under the category of Osteology, Dermatology, and Immunology Disorders. The test is conducted by our experienced Dermatologist in the Genetics department.
Pre-Test Information
Prior to the test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient who is undergoing the MR1 Gene Major Histocompatibility Complex 1 Deficiency Genetic Test. Additionally, a genetic counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by MR1 Gene Major Histocompatibility Complex 1 Deficiency.
Conclusion
The MR1 Gene Major Histocompatibility Complex 1 Deficiency Genetic Test offered by DNA Labs UAE is a valuable tool for diagnosing MHC1 deficiency. By identifying mutations or variations in the MR1 gene, this test can guide appropriate management and treatment options for affected individuals.

| Test Details |
The MR1 gene, also known as Major Histocompatibility Complex 1 (MHC1)-related gene 1, is a gene that codes for a protein involved in the immune system. MHC1 molecules are responsible for presenting antigens to immune cells, which helps initiate an immune response against infected or abnormal cells. Major Histocompatibility Complex 1 deficiency (MHC1 deficiency) refers to a condition where there is a mutation or deficiency in the MR1 gene, leading to a decreased or absent expression of MHC1 molecules on the cell surface. This can impair the immune system’s ability to recognize and destroy infected or abnormal cells, increasing the risk of infections and certain diseases. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is a genetic testing technique that allows for the analysis of multiple genes simultaneously. In the context of MR1 gene deficiency, NGS genetic testing can be used to identify mutations or variations in the MR1 gene that may be responsible for the deficiency. This can help in the diagnosis of MHC1 deficiency and guide appropriate management and treatment options for affected individuals. |
