LAMC3 Gene Cortical Malformations Occipital Genetic Test
Test Details
The LAMC3 gene is responsible for encoding a protein called laminin subunit gamma-3. Mutations in this gene have been associated with cortical malformations, specifically occipital cortical dysplasia. Cortical malformations refer to abnormalities in the development of the cerebral cortex, which is the outer layer of the brain responsible for higher cognitive functions. Occipital cortical dysplasia specifically affects the occipital lobe, which is responsible for visual processing.

Pre Test Information
Clinical History of Patient who is going for LAMC3 Gene Cortical malformations, occipital NGS Genetic DNA Test. A Genetic Counselling session to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with LAMC3 Gene Cortical malformations, occipital NGS Genetic DNA Test gene LAMC3.
Test Procedure
NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a type of genetic test that allows for the simultaneous sequencing of multiple genes or even the entire genome. It is a powerful tool for identifying genetic variations, including mutations, that may be associated with certain conditions or diseases. Therefore, an occipital NGS genetic test would involve using next-generation sequencing technology to analyze the LAMC3 gene and potentially other genes associated with occipital cortical dysplasia. This test can help identify mutations or variations in the LAMC3 gene that may be contributing to the development of cortical malformations in the occipital lobe.
