The GPR143 gene, associated with Ocular Albinism Type I, also known as Nettleship-Falls Type Albinism, plays a crucial role in determining the pigmentation of the eyes, skin, and hair. Mutations in this gene can lead to a reduction in melanin production, which is characteristic of this condition, leading to visual problems and light sensitivity. The genetic test for this specific type of albinism focuses on identifying mutations within the GPR143 gene to confirm a diagnosis, guide treatment, and inform family planning decisions.

At DNA Labs UAE, a specialized test is available for those suspected of having Ocular Albinism Type I (Nettleship-Falls Type). This test is meticulously designed to detect the presence of mutations in the GPR143 gene, offering a critical tool for accurate diagnosis and management of the condition. The cost of the test is 4400 AED, reflecting the comprehensive nature of the analysis and the advanced technology utilized to ensure precise results. This test is an invaluable resource for affected individuals and their families seeking clarity on their genetic status and looking to understand the implications for their health and vision.

A Genetic Counselling session to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with GPR143 Gene Albinism, ocular type I, Nettleship-Falls type NGS Genetic DNA Test gene GPR143

Test Details: The GPR143 gene is associated with ocular albinism type I, also known as Nettleship-Falls type. This is a rare genetic condition that affects the eyes, causing reduced pigmentation and vision problems. The GPR143 gene provides instructions for making a protein that is involved in the development and function of melanocytes, which are the cells that produce melanin, the pigment that gives color to the skin, hair, and eyes. Mutations in the GPR143 gene can lead to a reduction or absence of melanin in the eyes, causing vision problems such as nystagmus (involuntary eye movements), strabismus (crossed or misaligned eyes), and reduced visual acuity. The severity of symptoms can vary widely, even among individuals with the same mutation. NGS genetic testing can detect mutations in the GPR143 gene and help diagnose ocular albinism type I. This type of testing uses advanced sequencing technology to analyze multiple genes at once, providing a comprehensive view of an individual’s genetic makeup. Genetic testing can also help identify carriers of the condition, which can be useful for family planning and genetic counseling.
