Pre-Test Information
Prior to undergoing the FMR1 Gene Fragile X syndrome NGS Genetic DNA Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a Genetic Counselling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with FMR1 Gene Fragile X syndrome.
Test Details
The FMR1 gene Fragile X syndrome NGS genetic test utilizes Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to analyze the FMR1 gene for mutations associated with Fragile X syndrome. The FMR1 gene is responsible for producing a protein that is crucial for brain development and function. Mutations in this gene can lead to reduced or absent production of the protein, resulting in the symptoms of Fragile X syndrome.
This NGS genetic test is capable of detecting a variety of mutations in the FMR1 gene, including expansions of the CGG repeat sequence that are specifically linked to Fragile X syndrome. By undergoing this test, individuals can receive a diagnosis for Fragile X syndrome and gain insights into the severity of their condition.
In addition to diagnosis, this test can also be used for carrier testing in individuals with a family history of Fragile X syndrome. Furthermore, it is applicable for prenatal testing in pregnant women who are at risk of having a child with the condition.
Conclusion
The FMR1 Gene Fragile X syndrome Genetic Test offered by DNA Labs UAE is a valuable diagnostic tool for identifying mutations in the FMR1 gene that cause Fragile X syndrome. By utilizing NGS technology, this test provides accurate and comprehensive results. It is beneficial for individuals seeking a diagnosis, carrier testing, or prenatal testing. With a dedicated team of neurologists and genetics experts, DNA Labs UAE ensures reliable and efficient testing services.

FMR1 gene Fragile X syndrome NGS genetic test is a diagnostic test that uses Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to analyze the FMR1 gene for mutations that cause Fragile X syndrome. Fragile X syndrome is a genetic disorder that affects the X chromosome and is the most common cause of inherited intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder. The FMR1 gene provides instructions for making a protein that is important for brain development and function. Mutations in this gene can cause the protein to be produced in lower amounts or not at all, leading to the symptoms of Fragile X syndrome. The NGS genetic test can detect a range of mutations in the FMR1 gene, including expansions of the CGG repeat sequence that are associated with Fragile X syndrome. This test can help diagnose Fragile X syndrome and provide information about the severity of the condition. It can also be used for carrier testing in individuals with a family history of Fragile X syndrome or for prenatal testing in pregnant women who are at risk of having a child with the condition. |
