The GJA1 Gene Oculodentodigital Dysplasia Genetic Test is a specialized diagnostic tool available at DNA Labs UAE, designed to identify mutations in the GJA1 gene, which are associated with Oculodentodigital Dysplasia (ODDD). ODDD is a rare genetic disorder characterized by abnormalities in the eyes (oculo), teeth (dento), and fingers and toes (digital). Mutations in the GJA1 gene, which encodes a protein called connexin 43 that is crucial for cell communication, lead to the diverse symptoms observed in ODDD.

This genetic test is crucial for accurate diagnosis, allowing for tailored management and treatment plans for affected individuals. It involves collecting a DNA sample, typically through a blood draw or cheek swab, and analyzing it for specific mutations in the GJA1 gene. The test is priced at 4400 AED and is conducted in the state-of-the-art facilities of DNA Labs UAE, ensuring high accuracy and reliability of results. Early diagnosis through this genetic test can significantly improve the quality of life for individuals with ODDD by facilitating early intervention and support services.

Test Details:

The GJA1 gene is responsible for producing a protein called connexin 43, which plays a crucial role in the formation and function of gap junctions. Gap junctions are channels that allow direct communication and exchange of molecules between neighboring cells.

Oculodentodigital dysplasia (ODDD) is a rare genetic disorder that affects multiple systems in the body, including the eyes, teeth, and limbs. It is caused by mutations in the GJA1 gene, leading to a dysfunctional connexin 43 protein.

NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a method used to analyze multiple genes simultaneously and identify mutations or variations in the DNA sequence. In the case of oculodentodigital dysplasia, NGS can be used to specifically target and sequence the GJA1 gene, identifying any potential pathogenic mutations.

NGS genetic testing for oculodentodigital dysplasia can help confirm a clinical diagnosis, provide information about disease severity and prognosis, and assist in genetic counseling for affected individuals and their families. It can also be used for carrier testing in individuals with a family history of the condition.

It is important to note that genetic testing should be performed and interpreted by qualified healthcare professionals who specialize in genetics, as they can provide accurate and comprehensive information about the implications of the test results.
