A duly filled Whole Exome Sequencing Consent Form (Form 37) is mandatory before conducting the test.
Test Details
The Nx Gen Sequencing test is a genetic testing method used to diagnose genetic disorders such as Bethlem Myopathy, Myofibrillar Myopathy, and Ullrich Muscular Dystrophy. Bethlem Myopathy is a rare genetic disorder characterized by muscle weakness and joint stiffness. It is caused by mutations in the COL6A1, COL6A2, or COL6A3 genes, which are involved in the production of collagen VI. Myofibrillar Myopathy is a group of genetic disorders that affect muscle fiber structure and function. It is caused by mutations in various genes, including DES, CRYAB, MYOT, and others. Symptoms of myofibrillar myopathy can include muscle weakness, muscle wasting, and abnormal muscle stiffness. Ullrich Muscular Dystrophy is a rare genetic disorder characterized by muscle weakness and joint stiffness, also caused by mutations in the COL6A1, COL6A2, or COL6A3 genes. The Nx Gen Sequencing test analyzes an individual’s DNA to identify any mutations or genetic variations in the relevant genes associated with these disorders. This test can confirm a diagnosis and provide information about the specific genetic cause of the condition. It can also be used for carrier testing and prenatal diagnosis in families with a history of these disorders.

| Test Details | The Nx Gen Sequencing test is a genetic testing method that can be used to diagnose various genetic disorders, including Bethlem Myopathy, Myofibrillar Myopathy, and Ullrich Muscular Dystrophy. Bethlem Myopathy is a rare genetic disorder characterized by muscle weakness and joint stiffness. It is caused by mutations in the COL6A1, COL6A2, or COL6A3 genes, which are involved in the production of collagen VI, a protein that provides structure and support to muscles. Myofibrillar Myopathy is a group of genetic disorders that affect the structure and function of muscle fibers. It is caused by mutations in various genes, including DES, CRYAB, MYOT, and others. Symptoms of myofibrillar myopathy can include muscle weakness, muscle wasting, and abnormal muscle stiffness. Ullrich Muscular Dystrophy is a rare genetic disorder characterized by muscle weakness and joint stiffness.
