- Pre Test Information: Clinical History of Patient who is going for FYCO1 Gene Cataract, autosomal recessive congenital type 2 NGS Genetic DNA Test. A Genetic Counselling session to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with FYCO1 Gene Cataract, autosomal recessive congenital type 2 NGS Genetic DNA Test gene FYCO1
Test Details:
The FYCO1 gene is associated with the autosomal recessive congenital cataract type 2. This type of cataract is present at birth or develops during infancy and is caused by mutations in the FYCO1 gene. The FYCO1 gene provides instructions for making a protein that is involved in the process of autophagy, which is the body’s way of breaking down and recycling damaged or unnecessary cellular components. Mutations in the FYCO1 gene can disrupt this process and lead to the accumulation of damaged proteins in the lens of the eye, which can cause cataracts.
NGS genetic testing is a type of genetic testing that uses next-generation sequencing technology to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. This type of testing can be used to identify mutations in the FYCO1 gene that are associated with congenital cataract type 2. NGS genetic testing can help diagnose this condition and provide information about the inheritance pattern, which can be useful for family planning and genetic counseling.
