COL2A1 Gene Epiphyseal Dysplasia Multiple with Myopia and Deafness Genetic Test
Test Name: COL2A1 Gene Epiphyseal dysplasia multiple with myopia and deafness Genetic Test
Components: COL2A1 gene
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
Test type: Dysmorphology
Doctor: Pediatrics
Test Department: Genetics
Pre Test Information: Clinical History of Patient who is going for COL2A1 Gene Epiphyseal dysplasia, multiple, with myopia and deafness NGS Genetic DNA Test. A Genetic Counselling session to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with COL2A1 Gene Epiphyseal dysplasia, multiple, with myopia and deafness NGS Genetic DNA Test gene COL2A1
Test Details: The COL2A1 gene is responsible for providing instructions to make a protein called type II collagen. Mutations in this gene can cause a rare genetic disorder known as epiphyseal dysplasia, multiple, with myopia and deafness (EDMMD). EDMMD is characterized by multiple skeletal abnormalities, including abnormal development of the ends of long bones (epiphyses), leading to short stature and joint pain. Individuals with this condition may also have nearsightedness (myopia) and hearing loss. NGS genetic testing refers to Next-Generation Sequencing, a technique used to analyze multiple genes simultaneously for mutations or variations. In the case of EDMMD, NGS genetic testing can be used to identify mutations in the COL2A1 gene, helping to confirm a diagnosis. Genetic testing can be beneficial for individuals with suspected or diagnosed EDMMD, as it can provide a definitive diagnosis, inform reproductive planning, and guide management and treatment decisions. It can also help identify at-risk family members who may benefit from early intervention or surveillance.
