CERS1 Gene Progressive Myoclonus Epilepsy Type 8 Genetic Test
Test Name: CERS1 Gene Progressive Myoclonus Epilepsy Type 8 Genetic Test
Components: CERS1 gene analysis
Price: 4400.0 AED
Sample Condition: Blood or Extracted DNA or One drop Blood on FTA Card
Report Delivery: 3 to 4 Weeks
Method: NGS Technology

Pre Test Information:
- Clinical History of Patient who is going for CERS1 Gene Progressive Myoclonus Epilepsy Type 8 NGS Genetic DNA Test
- A Genetic Counselling session to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with CERS1 Gene Progressive Myoclonus Epilepsy Type 8
Test Details:
The CERS1 gene is associated with a rare genetic disorder called Progressive Myoclonus Epilepsy Type 8 (PME8). PME8 is characterized by progressive muscle jerking or myoclonus, seizures, and cognitive decline.
NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) Genetic Testing is a technique used to analyze multiple genes simultaneously to identify genetic variations or mutations that may be associated with a particular condition or disorder. In the case of PME8, NGS Genetic Testing can be used to analyze the CERS1 gene for any variations or mutations that may be responsible for the development of the disorder.
By identifying specific genetic variations or mutations in the CERS1 gene, NGS Genetic Testing can help in diagnosing PME8 and provide valuable information for the management and treatment of affected individuals. It can also help in identifying carriers of the genetic mutation and provide information for genetic counseling and family planning.
