CFAP298 Gene Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia Type 26 Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the CFAP298 Gene Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia Type 26 Genetic Test. This test is designed to detect mutations in the CFAP298 gene, which is associated with primary ciliary dyskinesia type 26, a genetic disorder affecting cilia function.
Test Details
The CFAP298 gene is responsible for the proper functioning of cilia, which are hair-like structures found on the surface of cells. These cilia play a crucial role in the movement of mucus and other substances in the body. When the CFAP298 gene is mutated, it can lead to abnormal ciliary function, resulting in symptoms such as chronic respiratory infections, infertility, and hearing loss.
Our CFAP298 Gene Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia Type 26 Genetic Test utilizes NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology, which allows for the analysis of multiple genes simultaneously. This enables us to identify mutations in the CFAP298 gene, providing a definitive diagnosis for individuals suspected of having this condition.

Pre Test Information
Prior to undergoing the CFAP298 Gene Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia Type 26 Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. This is especially relevant for individuals with GJB2 Gene Deafness with keratopachydermia and constrictions of fingers and toes. A genetic counseling session may also be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by this condition.
Benefits of Genetic Testing
The primary goal of genetic testing for primary ciliary dyskinesia type 26 is to confirm the diagnosis and provide information about the specific genetic mutation present. This information can be helpful in determining the inheritance pattern of the condition, providing appropriate genetic counseling, and potentially guiding treatment options.
Please note that genetic testing for primary ciliary dyskinesia type 26 may not be available in all healthcare settings. If you are interested in pursuing genetic testing for this condition, it is recommended to consult with a healthcare professional or genetic counselor who can provide guidance and help facilitate the testing process.
