HSPD1 Gene SPG13 Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the HSPD1 Gene SPG13 Genetic Test to diagnose neurological disorders. This test is specifically designed to identify mutations in the HSPD1 gene that are associated with hereditary spastic paraplegia (SPG13).
Test Details
The HSPD1 gene encodes for the heat shock protein 60 (HSP60), which plays a crucial role in protein folding and quality control within the mitochondria. Mutations in this gene have been linked to SPG13, a subtype of hereditary spastic paraplegia.
Components and Price
The cost of the HSPD1 Gene SPG13 Genetic Test is 4400.0 AED. The test requires a blood sample, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card.
Report Delivery
After the sample is collected, the report will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks.
Method
The HSPD1 Gene SPG13 Genetic Test utilizes Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology. NGS allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes or even the entire exome, which includes all protein-coding regions of the genome.
Test Type
This test is specifically designed for the diagnosis of neurological disorders, with a focus on SPG13.
Doctor and Test Department
The HSPD1 Gene SPG13 Genetic Test is performed by a neurologist in our Genetics department.
Pre Test Information
Prior to the test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient who will be undergoing the HSPD1 Gene SPG13 NGS Genetic DNA Test. Additionally, a genetic counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by SPG13.
Importance of the Test
NGS genetic testing for SPG13 can confirm a diagnosis and provide information about the specific genetic variant causing the condition. This information is crucial for genetic counseling, family planning, and potentially guiding treatment options in the future.

Test Details |
HSPD1 is a gene that encodes for the heat shock protein 60 (HSP60), which is involved in protein folding and quality control within the mitochondria. Mutations in the HSPD1 gene have been associated with a subtype of hereditary spastic paraplegia called SPG13. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing refers to a high-throughput DNA sequencing technology that allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes or even the entire exome (all protein-coding regions of the genome). This type of testing can be used to identify genetic variations, such as mutations or variants, in the HSPD1 gene that may be responsible for SPG13. NGS genetic testing for SPG13 can help confirm a diagnosis and provide information about the specific genetic variant causing the condition. This information can be important for genetic counseling, family planning, and potentially guiding treatment options in the future. |
