FBN1 Gene Stiff Skin Syndrome Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the FBN1 Gene Stiff Skin Syndrome Genetic Test at a cost of AED 4400.0. This test is designed to diagnose Stiff Skin Syndrome (SSS), a rare genetic disorder characterized by thickening and hardening of the skin, limited joint movement, and other related symptoms.
Test Components and Price
The FBN1 Gene Stiff Skin Syndrome Genetic Test costs AED 4400.0. The test requires a blood sample, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card.
Report Delivery and Method
The report for the FBN1 Gene Stiff Skin Syndrome Genetic Test will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks. The test utilizes NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology to analyze the FBN1 gene for any mutations or variations.
Test Type and Doctor
The FBN1 Gene Stiff Skin Syndrome Genetic Test falls under the category of Dysmorphology. It is recommended to consult a Pediatrics doctor for this test.
Test Department and Pre Test Information
The FBN1 Gene Stiff Skin Syndrome Genetic Test is conducted in our Genetics department. Before undergoing the test, it is essential to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a Genetic Counselling session is recommended to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by Stiff Skin Syndrome and the FBN1 gene.
Test Details
The FBN1 gene is associated with Stiff Skin Syndrome (SSS). NGS technology allows for the sequencing of multiple genes simultaneously. In the case of Stiff Skin Syndrome, the FBN1 gene is analyzed for mutations or variations that may be causing the condition. The test involves obtaining a DNA sample from the individual, usually through a blood or saliva sample. The DNA is then extracted and sequenced using NGS technology. The sequencing data is analyzed to identify any mutations or variations in the FBN1 gene that may be responsible for the condition.
This type of genetic testing can confirm a diagnosis of Stiff Skin Syndrome and provide information about the specific genetic mutation involved. It is also useful for carrier testing in individuals with a family history of the condition and for prenatal testing in families at risk of having a child with Stiff Skin Syndrome.
It is crucial to note that genetic testing for Stiff Skin Syndrome should be done under the guidance of a healthcare professional or genetic counselor who can interpret the results and provide appropriate counseling and support.

The FBN1 gene is associated with a condition called Stiff Skin Syndrome (SSS). SSS is a rare genetic disorder characterized by thickening and hardening of the skin, leading to limited joint movement and other related symptoms. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) is a genetic testing technique that allows for the sequencing of multiple genes simultaneously. In the case of Stiff Skin Syndrome, NGS can be used to analyze the FBN1 gene for any mutations or variations that may be causing the condition. An NGS genetic test for the FBN1 gene in Stiff Skin Syndrome would involve obtaining a DNA sample from the individual, usually through a blood or saliva sample. The DNA is then extracted and sequenced using NGS technology. The sequencing data is analyzed to identify any mutations or variations in the FBN1 gene that may be responsible for the condition. This type of genetic testing can help confirm a diagnosis of Stiff Skin Syndrome and provide information about the specific genetic mutation involved. It can also be used for carrier testing in individuals with a family history of the condition, and for prenatal testing in families at risk of having a child with Stiff Skin Syndrome.
