Pre Test Information:
Clinical History of Patient who is going for MCPH1 Gene Microcephaly, autosomal recessive type 1 NGS Genetic DNA Test. A Genetic Counselling session to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with MCPH1 Gene Microcephaly, autosomal recessive type 1 NGS Genetic DNA Test gene MCPH1.
Test Details:
The MCPH1 gene, also known as Microcephalin 1, is associated with a condition called microcephaly, autosomal recessive type 1. Microcephaly is a neurological disorder characterized by a significantly smaller head size and brain volume compared to individuals of the same age and sex.
NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a method used to analyze the DNA sequence of genes, including the MCPH1 gene, to identify any potential mutations or variations that may be associated with microcephaly. This type of testing can provide valuable information about an individual’s genetic makeup and help in diagnosing genetic disorders.
The MCPH1 gene is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, meaning that an affected individual must inherit two copies of the mutated gene (one from each parent) to develop microcephaly. NGS genetic testing can identify these mutations and provide information about the likelihood of passing them on to future generations.
It is important to note that genetic testing for microcephaly and other genetic disorders should be performed by a qualified healthcare professional or genetic counselor who can provide appropriate guidance and support throughout the testing process.
