COA8 Gene Mitochondrial Complex IV Deficiency Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the COA8 Gene Mitochondrial Complex IV Deficiency Genetic Test for individuals who may be affected by this genetic disorder. This test helps in diagnosing and managing the condition, as well as providing important information for genetic counseling.
Test Components and Price
The test is priced at 4400.0 AED. The sample condition required for the test includes blood or extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card.
Report Delivery and Test Method
The report will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks. The test is performed using NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology, which allows for efficient sequencing of multiple genes or the entire genome.
Test Type and Doctor
The COA8 Gene Mitochondrial Complex IV Deficiency Genetic Test falls under the category of Neurological Disorders. It is recommended to consult a neurologist for this test.
Test Department and Pre Test Information
The test is conducted in the Genetics department. Before undergoing the COA8 Gene Mitochondrial Complex IV Deficiency Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session may be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by this condition.
Test Details
The COA8 gene is associated with mitochondrial complex IV deficiency, a genetic disorder that affects the function of a protein complex called complex IV or cytochrome c oxidase in the mitochondria. This complex is responsible for the final step in the electron transport chain, which is crucial for ATP production, the cell’s main energy source.
A NGS genetic test is used to sequence the COA8 gene and identify any genetic variations or mutations that may be causing the deficiency. This test helps in the diagnosis of individuals with mitochondrial complex IV deficiency and provides valuable information for genetic counseling and management of the condition. It can also be used for carrier testing in families with a history of the disorder.
In conclusion, the COA8 Gene Mitochondrial Complex IV Deficiency Genetic Test offered by DNA Labs UAE is an essential tool for understanding the genetic basis of this disorder. It aids in diagnosis, treatment, and prevention strategies, providing valuable insights for individuals and their families affected by mitochondrial complex IV deficiency.

The COA8 gene is associated with mitochondrial complex IV deficiency, which is a genetic disorder that affects the function of a protein complex in the mitochondria called complex IV or cytochrome c oxidase. This complex is responsible for the final step in the electron transport chain, which is essential for the production of ATP (the cell’s main energy source). A NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic test is a type of DNA sequencing technology that allows for the rapid and efficient sequencing of multiple genes or the entire genome. In the case of COA8 gene mitochondrial complex IV deficiency, a NGS genetic test would involve sequencing the COA8 gene to identify any genetic variations or mutations that may be causing the deficiency. By identifying the specific genetic mutation(s) in the COA8 gene, a NGS genetic test can help diagnose individuals with mitochondrial complex IV deficiency and provide important information for genetic counseling and management of the condition. It can also be used for carrier testing in families with a history of the disorder. Overall, a NGS genetic test for COA8 gene mitochondrial complex IV deficiency is a valuable tool for understanding the genetic basis of this disorder and can aid in diagnosis, treatment, and prevention strategies. |
