Pre Test Information:

Before undergoing the GATAD2B Gene Mental Retardation Autosomal Dominant Type 18 Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by GATAD2B Gene Mental Retardation Autosomal Dominant Type 18.

Test Details:

The GATAD2B gene is associated with a condition called Mental Retardation Autosomal Dominant Type 18 (MRD18). Our genetic test, Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS), is used to identify mutations or variations in the GATAD2B gene that may be responsible for MRD18.

NGS is a high-throughput sequencing technology that allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes or the entire genome. It can detect small genetic changes, such as single nucleotide variants (SNVs), insertions, deletions, and larger structural variations.

To perform the genetic test, we will need a DNA sample. This can be obtained through a blood sample or saliva from the individual being tested. The DNA sample will then be sequenced using NGS technology to identify any variations or mutations in the GATAD2B gene.

The results of the NGS genetic test can help confirm a diagnosis of MRD18 in individuals suspected of having the condition. It can also provide information about the specific genetic variant present, which may be helpful for genetic counseling and family planning.

It is important to note that this genetic test should be ordered and interpreted by a qualified healthcare professional, such as a geneticist or genetic counselor, who can provide appropriate counseling and guidance based on the test results.
