CENPE Gene Microcephaly Autosomal Recessive Type 13 Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the CENPE Gene Microcephaly Autosomal Recessive Type 13 Genetic Test at a cost of AED 4400.0. This test is used to diagnose microcephaly, autosomal recessive type 13, a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by a significantly smaller head size and brain volume compared to individuals of the same age and sex.
Test Details
The CENPE (Centromere protein E) gene encodes a protein involved in cell division and the proper alignment of chromosomes during mitosis. Mutations in the CENPE gene have been associated with microcephaly, autosomal recessive type 13. To identify these mutations, we use NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology, which allows for the analysis of multiple genes simultaneously.

Pre Test Information
Before undergoing the CENPE Gene Microcephaly Autosomal Recessive Type 13 Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with the condition.
How the Test Works
NGS genetic testing involves obtaining a DNA sample from the individual being tested, such as a blood sample or a cheek swab. The DNA is then sequenced using advanced technology, allowing for the identification of variations or mutations in the CENPE gene. The results of the test can confirm a diagnosis of microcephaly, autosomal recessive type 13 and provide information about the specific mutation(s) present in the CENPE gene.
Genetic Counseling and Guidance
It is important to note that genetic testing for microcephaly, autosomal recessive type 13 should be performed by healthcare professionals or genetic counselors who can interpret the results and provide appropriate genetic counseling and guidance. Our team at DNA Labs UAE is experienced in providing comprehensive genetic counseling services to assist patients and their families in understanding the implications of the test results.
By offering the CENPE Gene Microcephaly Autosomal Recessive Type 13 Genetic Test, we aim to contribute to the early detection and management of this condition, ultimately improving patient outcomes.

| Test Details |
CENPE (Centromere protein E) is a gene that encodes a protein involved in cell division and the proper alignment of chromosomes during mitosis. Mutations in the CENPE gene have been associated with microcephaly, autosomal recessive type 13. Microcephaly is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by a significantly smaller head size and brain volume compared to individuals of the same age and sex. Autosomal recessive inheritance means that an individual must inherit two copies of the mutated gene, one from each parent, to develop the condition. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a method used to analyze multiple genes simultaneously to identify mutations or variations that may be associated with a particular condition. In the case of microcephaly, autosomal recessive type 13, NGS genetic testing can be used to identify mutations in the CENPE gene that may be responsible for the condition. NGS genetic testing typically involves obtaining a DNA sample from the individual being tested, such as a blood sample or a cheek swab. The DNA is then sequenced using advanced technology, which allows for the identification of variations or mutations in the CENPE gene. The results of the genetic test can help in confirming a diagnosis of microcephaly, autosomal recessive type 13 and can also provide information about the specific mutation(s) present in the CENPE gene. It is important to note that genetic testing for microcephaly, autosomal recessive type 13 is typically performed by healthcare professionals or genetic counselors who can interpret the results and provide appropriate genetic counseling and guidance. |
