Pre Test Information:
Before undergoing the DST Gene Epidermolysis bullosa simplex autosomal recessive type 2 Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a Genetic Counselling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with this condition.
About Epidermolysis bullosa simplex autosomal recessive type 2:
The DST gene is responsible for encoding the protein dystonin, which plays a crucial role in maintaining the structure and function of skin cells. Mutations in this gene can lead to Epidermolysis bullosa simplex (EBS), an inherited skin disorder characterized by blistering and skin erosion.
Autosomal recessive type 2 EBS specifically occurs due to mutations in the DST gene, resulting in a deficiency or malfunction of the dystonin protein. To detect these mutations, NGS (next-generation sequencing) genetic testing is used.
Advantages of NGS Testing:
NGS testing involves sequencing the entire DST gene or specific regions of the gene to identify any variations or abnormalities causing the disorder. This comprehensive analysis allows for a more accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment options compared to traditional genetic testing methods.
Don’t wait any longer. Get tested for DST Gene Epidermolysis bullosa simplex autosomal recessive type 2 at DNA Labs UAE and take the first step towards understanding and managing your condition.

Test Details |
The DST gene is responsible for encoding the protein dystonin, which plays a role in maintaining the structure and function of skin cells. Mutations in this gene can cause a type of epidermolysis bullosa simplex (EBS), an inherited skin disorder characterized by blistering and skin erosion. Autosomal recessive type 2 EBS is caused by mutations in the DST gene, leading to a deficiency or malfunction of the dystonin protein. NGS (next-generation sequencing) genetic testing can be used to detect mutations in the DST gene associated with autosomal recessive type 2 EBS. This type of testing involves sequencing the entire gene or specific regions of the gene to identify any variations or abnormalities that may be causing the disorder. NGS testing can provide a more comprehensive analysis compared to traditional genetic testing methods, allowing for more accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment options. |
