Test Details
The BEST1 gene is associated with a condition called Bestrophinopathy, which is a rare inherited eye disorder that affects the macula. The macula is the central part of the retina responsible for sharp, detailed vision. Bestrophinopathy can cause vision loss, distorted vision, and difficulty seeing in low light conditions.
NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a type of DNA sequencing technology that can analyze multiple genes at once, quickly and accurately. NGS genetic testing can be used to diagnose Bestrophinopathy by identifying mutations or changes in the BEST1 gene. The BEST1 gene provides instructions for making a protein called bestrophin, which is important for the normal function of cells in the retina. Mutations in the BEST1 gene can disrupt the function of bestrophin, leading to the development of Bestrophinopathy.
NGS genetic testing for Bestrophinopathy can help diagnose the condition early, allowing for earlier treatment and management of the disease. It can also be used for genetic counseling and family planning purposes, as Bestrophinopathy is an inherited condition.
