KCNQ2 Gene Seizures benign neonatal type 1 Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the KCNQ2 Gene Seizures benign neonatal type 1 Genetic Test for the diagnosis of benign neonatal seizures, type 1 (BNNS1). This test is designed to identify any genetic variants or mutations in the KCNQ2 gene that may be causing the seizures.
Test Details
The KCNQ2 gene is associated with a condition called benign neonatal seizures, type 1 (BNNS1). This condition is characterized by seizures that occur in the first few days or weeks of life and typically resolve by 3-4 months of age.
Our KCNQ2 Gene Seizures benign neonatal type 1 Genetic Test is performed using NGS (next-generation sequencing) technology. NGS is a high-throughput method used to sequence DNA. By analyzing the DNA sequence of the KCNQ2 gene, we can identify any genetic variants or mutations that may be causing the seizures.
Test Components and Price
The cost of the KCNQ2 Gene Seizures benign neonatal type 1 Genetic Test is 4400.0 AED.
Sample Condition
We accept blood samples or extracted DNA samples for this test. Alternatively, you can provide one drop of blood on an FTA card.
Report Delivery
You can expect to receive the test report within 3 to 4 weeks.
Test Type
The KCNQ2 Gene Seizures benign neonatal type 1 Genetic Test falls under the category of Neurological Disorders.
Referring Doctor
This test is typically ordered by a Neurologist.
Test Department
The KCNQ2 Gene Seizures benign neonatal type 1 Genetic Test is conducted in our Genetics department.
Pre Test Information
Prior to undergoing the KCNQ2 Gene Seizures benign neonatal type 1 Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a Genetic Counselling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with KCNQ2 Gene Seizures, benign neonatal, type 1.
Benefits of the Test
Genetic testing for KCNQ2 gene mutations can be helpful in various ways:
- Guiding treatment decisions
- Providing information about prognosis
- Assisting with family planning
Our team of geneticists and genetic counselors will interpret the test results and provide appropriate counseling and recommendations based on the findings.

The KCNQ2 gene is associated with a condition called benign neonatal seizures, type 1 (BNNS1). This condition is characterized by seizures that occur in the first few days or weeks of life and typically resolve by 3-4 months of age. NGS stands for next-generation sequencing, which is a high-throughput method used to sequence DNA. NGS genetic testing involves analyzing the DNA sequence of the KCNQ2 gene to identify any genetic variants or mutations that may be causing the seizures. This test can help confirm a diagnosis of BNNS1 and provide information about the specific genetic variant involved. Genetic testing for KCNQ2 gene mutations can be helpful in guiding treatment decisions, providing information about prognosis, and assisting with family planning. It is typically performed by a geneticist or genetic counselor, who can interpret the results and provide appropriate counseling and recommendations. |
