FAT4 Gene Van Maldergem syndrome type 2 Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the FAT4 Gene Van Maldergem syndrome type 2 Genetic Test. This test is designed to analyze the FAT4 gene, which is associated with a rare genetic disorder called Van Maldergem syndrome type 2 (VMS2). VMS2 is characterized by various physical and developmental abnormalities.
Test Components and Price
- Test Name: FAT4 Gene Van Maldergem syndrome type 2 Genetic Test
- Price: 4400.0 AED
Sample Condition
The test can be conducted using blood or extracted DNA. Alternatively, a single drop of blood can be placed on an FTA Card.
Report Delivery
Test results are typically delivered within 3 to 4 weeks.
Method
The test utilizes NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology to analyze multiple genes simultaneously.
Test Type
The FAT4 Gene Van Maldergem syndrome type 2 Genetic Test falls under the category of Dysmorphology.
Doctor and Test Department
The test is conducted by our experienced team of pediatricians in the Genetics department.
Pre Test Information
Prior to conducting the FAT4 Gene Van Maldergem syndrome type 2 Genetic Test, we require the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a Genetic Counselling session is conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by the disorder. This helps in understanding the inheritance pattern of the FAT4 gene.
Test Details
NGS genetic testing is a method used to detect genetic variations, such as mutations or changes, in a person’s DNA sequence. In the case of VMS2, the FAT4 gene is responsible for causing the condition. The purpose of performing an NGS genetic test for VMS2 is to confirm a diagnosis in individuals suspected of having the disorder. It can also be used for carrier testing to determine if an individual carries a mutation in the FAT4 gene, which could be passed on to their children.
It is important to note that genetic testing should always be done under the guidance of a healthcare professional, such as a genetic counselor or geneticist. These professionals can provide appropriate counseling and interpretation of the test results.
