A Genetic Counselling session to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with SLC52A3 Gene Brown-Vialetto-Van Laere syndrome 1 NGS Genetic DNA Test gene SLC52A21
Test Details: The DNAH9 gene is associated with a condition called primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD). PCD is a rare genetic disorder that affects the structure and function of cilia, which are hair-like structures found on the surface of cells in the respiratory tract, fallopian tubes, and other organs. The DNAH9 gene provides instructions for making a protein called dynein axonemal heavy chain 9. This protein is a component of the dynein complex, which plays a crucial role in the movement of cilia. Mutations in the DNAH9 gene can disrupt the normal functioning of cilia, leading to the development of PCD.
NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a type of genetic testing that uses advanced sequencing technology to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the context of PCD, NGS genetic testing can identify mutations in the DNAH9 gene and other genes known to be associated with the condition. NGS genetic testing for DNAH9-related PCD can help in the diagnosis of the condition, as well as in identifying carriers of the gene mutation. It can also provide information about the specific mutation present, which can be useful for understanding the prognosis and potential treatment options for individuals with PCD.
It is important to note that genetic testing for PCD is typically done in conjunction with other diagnostic tests, such as measurement of ciliary function and structure, as well as clinical evaluation of symptoms. Genetic testing alone may not be sufficient for a definitive diagnosis of PCD. Genetic counseling is also recommended before and after genetic testing to help individuals understand the implications of the test results and make informed decisions about their healthcare.
