The FKRP gene limb-girdle muscular dystrophy autosomal recessive type 2I genetic test is a specialized diagnostic tool designed to detect mutations in the FKRP gene, which are responsible for causing limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2I (LGMD2I). This form of muscular dystrophy is characterized by progressive muscle weakness and wasting, primarily affecting the muscles around the hips and shoulders (the limb-girdle area). It is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, meaning that two copies of the defective gene, one from each parent, are required for the condition to manifest.

The test involves analyzing the patient’s DNA, extracted from a blood sample, to identify mutations in the FKRP gene that are linked to LGMD2I. This genetic test is crucial for accurate diagnosis, allowing for early intervention, management plans, and genetic counseling for affected families. It also helps in distinguishing LGMD2I from other forms of muscular dystrophy and related disorders.

Conducted at DNA Labs UAE, a leading facility in genetic diagnostics, the test is priced at 4400 AED. DNA Labs UAE is equipped with state-of-the-art technology and staffed by experts in genetic analysis, ensuring high-quality testing and reliable results. This test is an essential resource for individuals exhibiting symptoms of limb-girdle muscular dystrophy, as well as for their families seeking to understand their genetic health and risks.

FKRP Gene Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy autosomal recessive type 2I Genetic Test

At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the FKRP Gene Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy autosomal recessive type 2I Genetic Test. This test helps diagnose and identify the causes of this genetic disorder.

Test Details

FKRP gene limb-girdle muscular dystrophy, autosomal recessive type 2I is a genetic disorder characterized by progressive muscle weakness and wasting. It is caused by mutations in the FKRP gene, which is involved in the glycosylation of alpha-dystroglycan, an important protein for muscle function.

Our NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing method allows us to analyze multiple genes simultaneously, providing accurate and comprehensive results. In the case of FKRP gene limb-girdle muscular dystrophy, autosomal recessive type 2I, this test involves sequencing the FKRP gene to identify any mutations or variations that may be causing the disorder.

This type of genetic test can help confirm a diagnosis of FKRP gene limb-girdle muscular dystrophy, autosomal recessive type 2I, and can also be used for carrier testing and prenatal diagnosis in families with a known mutation in the FKRP gene. It provides important information for genetic counseling and helps guide treatment and management decisions for individuals affected by the disorder.
