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.

Pre Test Information
Prior to the IDS Gene Mucopolysaccharidosis type 2 NGS Genetic DNA Test, it is important to gather the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session may be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with Mucopolysaccharidosis type 2.
