The IDS Gene Mucopolysaccharidosis Type 2 (MPS II), also known as Hunter syndrome, is a rare genetic disorder caused by a deficiency in the enzyme iduronate-2-sulfatase. This enzyme is crucial for breaking down certain complex molecules, and its deficiency leads to the accumulation of these molecules in body tissues, leading to various symptoms including skeletal abnormalities, cognitive impairment, and heart disease. The condition is inherited in an X-linked recessive pattern, affecting mainly males.

To diagnose this condition, a genetic test targeting the IDS gene can be conducted. This test involves analyzing the DNA to identify mutations in the IDS gene that are responsible for MPS II. Early diagnosis through genetic testing is vital for the management and treatment of the disorder, allowing for interventions that can improve quality of life and prolong lifespan.

In the United Arab Emirates, DNA Labs UAE offers this specific genetic test for the IDS gene. The cost of the test is 4400 AED. DNA Labs UAE is equipped with advanced genetic testing technologies to ensure accurate and reliable results. This test is recommended for individuals with a family history of Hunter syndrome or those exhibiting symptoms associated with the disorder. It is also a crucial step for families considering genetic counseling.

IDS Gene Mucopolysaccharidosis type 2 Genetic Test

At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the IDS Gene Mucopolysaccharidosis type 2 Genetic Test at a cost of AED 4400.0.

Test Details

The IDS gene, also known as the iduronate 2-sulfatase gene, is associated with a genetic disorder called Mucopolysaccharidosis type 2 (MPS II), also known as Hunter syndrome. MPS II is an X-linked recessive disorder that affects the metabolism of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), leading to their accumulation in various tissues and organs.

NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a method used to analyze multiple genes simultaneously, providing a comprehensive evaluation of an individual’s genetic makeup. In the context of MPS II, NGS genetic testing can be used to identify mutations or variants in the IDS gene that may be responsible for the development of the disorder.

NGS genetic testing for MPS II involves obtaining a DNA sample from the individual, typically through a blood or saliva sample. The DNA is then sequenced using NGS technology to identify any mutations or variants in the IDS gene. This information can help diagnose MPS II, determine the severity of the condition, and guide treatment decisions.

It’s important to note that genetic testing for MPS II is typically recommended for individuals with symptoms suggestive of the disorder or for those with a family history of MPS II. The testing process and interpretation of results should be done by a qualified geneticist or genetic counselor.
