COLQ Gene Endplate Acetylcholinesterase Deficiency Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the COLQ Gene Endplate Acetylcholinesterase Deficiency Genetic Test. This test is designed to detect mutations in the COLQ gene that may be responsible for endplate acetylcholinesterase deficiency (EAED), a condition caused by a deficiency of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) at the neuromuscular junction.
Test Details
The COLQ gene is responsible for producing the protein collagen-like tail subunit (ColQ), which is necessary for the proper functioning of AChE at the neuromuscular junction. Mutations in the COLQ gene can result in a deficiency of AChE, leading to EAED.
Our NGS genetic test involves sequencing the entire coding region of the COLQ gene to identify any genetic variations that may affect its function. This test is specifically designed for individuals with neurological disorders.
Test Components and Price
The price for the COLQ Gene Endplate Acetylcholinesterase Deficiency Genetic Test is 4400.0 AED. The test can be conducted using a blood sample, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card.
Report Delivery
Once the sample is received, the report will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks.
Referring Doctor and Test Department
This test is recommended to be performed by a neurologist. It falls under the Genetics department of our laboratory.
Pre Test Information
Prior to the test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient who is going for the COLQ Gene Endplate Acetylcholinesterase Deficiency NGS Genetic DNA Test. Additionally, a genetic counseling session may be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with EAED.
Benefits of Early Diagnosis
Early diagnosis of EAED through genetic testing can help guide treatment and management of the condition. It also provides valuable information for family planning and genetic counseling.
