Test Details
The PIEZO2 gene is responsible for encoding the PIEZO2 protein, which is involved in the sense of touch and proprioception (the ability to sense the position and movement of one’s body). Mutations in the PIEZO2 gene can lead to a condition known as Marden-Walker syndrome.
Marden-Walker syndrome is a rare genetic disorder characterized by multiple joint contractures (stiffness), muscle weakness, and facial anomalies. Individuals with this syndrome often have difficulty with motor skills and may also experience intellectual disability and respiratory problems.
NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) is a type of genetic testing that allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes, including the PIEZO2 gene. This technology enables the detection of genetic mutations or variants that may be responsible for Marden-Walker syndrome. NGS testing can provide a comprehensive assessment of an individual’s genetic makeup and help in the diagnosis of genetic disorders.
Genetic testing for Marden-Walker syndrome using NGS involves collecting a DNA sample, typically through a blood sample or saliva swab. The DNA is then sequenced using NGS technology to identify any mutations or variants in the PIEZO2 gene.
The results of the test can provide valuable information for diagnosis, genetic counseling, and potential treatment options. It is important to note that genetic testing for Marden-Walker syndrome using NGS is typically performed by healthcare professionals with expertise in genetics. The test may not be available in all healthcare settings and may require a referral to a specialized genetic testing laboratory.
