FKTN Gene Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy autosomal recessive type 2M Genetic Test
Components: FKTN Gene Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy autosomal recessive type 2M Genetic Test
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: Neurological Disorders
Doctor: Neurologist
Test Department: Genetics
Pre Test Information: Clinical History of Patient who is going for FKTN Gene Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy, autosomal recessive type 2M NGS Genetic DNA Test. A Genetic Counselling session to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with FKTN Gene Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy, autosomal recessive type 2M.
Test Details: The FKTN gene is associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy, autosomal recessive type 2M (LGMD2M). This type of muscular dystrophy is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, meaning that an individual must inherit two copies of the mutated FKTN gene (one from each parent) in order to develop the condition. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) is a genetic testing method that can be used to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the case of LGMD2M, an NGS genetic test would involve sequencing the FKTN gene to identify any mutations or variations that may be present. This can help in confirming a diagnosis of LGMD2M and determining the specific genetic cause of the condition. Genetic testing for LGMD2M can be helpful for individuals who have symptoms suggestive of the condition, as well as for their family members who may be at risk of being carriers or developing the condition themselves. It can also assist in providing information for genetic counseling and family planning decisions. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional or genetic counselor to discuss the appropriateness and implications of genetic testing in specific cases.
