chr. 15q11 Gene Prader-Willi syndrome Genetic Test
Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a rare genetic disorder associated with the chr. 15q11 gene region on chromosome 15. This syndrome is characterized by a range of physical, behavioral, and cognitive symptoms, including hyperphagia (excessive appetite), obesity, intellectual disability, and behavioral problems.
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer a comprehensive genetic test for chr. 15q11 Gene Prader-Willi syndrome. This test can help confirm a diagnosis of PWS and provide important information about the specific genetic cause of the condition. The test is performed using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, a high-throughput DNA sequencing method.
Test Details
- Test Name: chr. 15q11 Gene Prader-Willi syndrome Genetic Test
- Components: NGS Technology
- Price: 4400.0 AED
- Sample Condition: Blood or Extracted DNA or One drop Blood on FTA Card
- Report Delivery: 3 to 4 Weeks
- Test Type: Neurological Disorders

- Pre Test Information: Clinical History of Patient who is going for chr. 15q11 Gene Prader-Willi syndrome NGS Genetic DNA Test. A Genetic Counselling session to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with chr. 15q11 Gene Prader-Willi syndrome.
The chr. 15q11 gene region is analyzed during the test to identify any genetic variations or mutations that may be associated with the development of Prader-Willi syndrome. This information can help in confirming a diagnosis of PWS and provide valuable insights into the genetic cause of the condition.
NGS genetic testing for Prader-Willi syndrome can be performed on a blood sample or other DNA-containing sample. The results of the test are typically interpreted by genetic counselors or medical geneticists, who can provide guidance on treatment and management decisions for individuals with PWS.
This genetic test is also useful for carrier testing in individuals with a family history of PWS or for prenatal testing in families at risk of having a child with PWS. The results of the test can be instrumental in family planning and making informed decisions about the future.
At DNA Labs UAE, we are committed to providing accurate and reliable genetic testing services. Our chr. 15q11 Gene Prader-Willi syndrome Genetic Test can help individuals and families affected by PWS gain a better understanding of the condition and make informed decisions about their health.

The chr. 15q11 gene is a region on chromosome 15 that is associated with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS), a rare genetic disorder. PWS is characterized by a range of physical, behavioral, and cognitive symptoms, including hyperphagia (excessive appetite), obesity, intellectual disability, and behavioral problems. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) is a high-throughput DNA sequencing technology that can be used for genetic testing. In the context of PWS, NGS genetic testing involves analyzing the DNA sequence of the chr. 15q11 gene region to identify any genetic variations or mutations that may be associated with the development of Prader-Willi syndrome. This type of genetic testing can help confirm a diagnosis of PWS and provide information about the specific genetic cause of the condition. It can also be used for carrier testing in individuals with a family history of PWS or for prenatal testing in families at risk of having a child with PWS. NGS genetic testing for Prader-Willi syndrome can be performed on a blood sample or other DNA-containing sample, and the results are typically interpreted by genetic counselors or medical geneticists. The test results can help guide treatment and management decisions for individuals with PWS and provide important information for family planning. |
