Test Details:
The GLRB gene is associated with a neurological disorder called hyperekplexia, also known as startle disease. Hyperekplexia is a rare genetic disorder characterized by an exaggerated startle response to unexpected stimuli, leading to muscle stiffness and temporary paralysis.
NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a method used to analyze the DNA sequence of an individual’s genes. In the context of hyperekplexia, NGS genetic testing can be used to identify mutations or variations in the GLRB gene that may be causing the disorder. NGS testing involves sequencing large amounts of DNA in a rapid and cost-effective manner. It allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes, making it particularly useful for genetic disorders with a complex or heterogeneous genetic basis, such as hyperekplexia.
By identifying specific mutations or variations in the GLRB gene through NGS testing, healthcare professionals can confirm a diagnosis of hyperekplexia and provide appropriate genetic counseling and management strategies for affected individuals and their families.
