GJB2 Gene Deafness Autosomal Recessive Type 1A Genetic Test
Cost: AED 4400.0
Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Test Details
The GJB2 gene is associated with a type of genetic deafness called autosomal recessive type 1A (DFNB1A). This type of deafness is caused by mutations in the GJB2 gene, which encodes a protein called connexin 26.
The NGS Genetic Test for GJB2 gene deafness involves sequencing the entire coding region of the GJB2 gene to identify any mutations or variations that may be present. This test is used to diagnose individuals with suspected autosomal recessive type 1A deafness. It can also be used for carrier testing in individuals with a family history of GJB2-related deafness.
By identifying the specific mutations in the GJB2 gene, healthcare professionals can provide accurate genetic counseling, determine the risk of passing the condition to future generations, and potentially guide treatment options.
