Test Details
The ATP6V1B1 gene is associated with a condition called renal tubular acidosis with deafness (RTA-Deafness). RTA is a disorder characterized by the inability of the kidneys to properly acidify urine, leading to a build-up of acid in the blood. This can result in various symptoms such as excessive thirst, frequent urination, dehydration, and electrolyte imbalances.
RTA-Deafness is a specific subtype of RTA that is caused by mutations in the ATP6V1B1 gene. This gene provides instructions for making a protein called V-ATPase B1 subunit, which is a component of the V-ATPase complex. This complex is responsible for maintaining the pH balance within cells and plays a crucial role in the acidification of urine in the kidneys.
Mutations in the ATP6V1B1 gene disrupt the normal function of the V-ATPase complex, leading to impaired acidification of urine and the development of RTA. In addition, these mutations can also affect the function of the inner ear, resulting in sensorineural hearing loss or deafness.
NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a type of genetic test that can analyze multiple genes simultaneously, allowing for the detection of mutations in the ATP6V1B1 gene and other genes associated with RTA-Deafness. This test involves sequencing the DNA of an individual to identify any genetic variants or mutations that may be contributing to their symptoms.
By identifying mutations in the ATP6V1B1 gene through NGS genetic testing, healthcare professionals can confirm a diagnosis of RTA-Deafness and provide appropriate management and treatment options for affected individuals.
