The “KHK Gene Fructosuria Essential Genetic Test” is a specialized diagnostic procedure offered by DNA Labs UAE, designed to identify mutations in the KHK gene, which can lead to essential fructosuria. This condition is a rare, inherited metabolic disorder characterized by the inability to properly metabolize fructose, a type of sugar found in fruits, honey, and some sweeteners. Individuals with essential fructosuria typically exhibit elevated levels of fructose in their urine, although the condition is often benign and asymptomatic.

The test is particularly important for individuals with a family history of metabolic disorders or for those exhibiting symptoms related to fructose metabolism issues. It involves collecting a DNA sample, usually through a blood draw or a cheek swab, which is then analyzed in the laboratory for the presence of specific mutations in the KHK gene that are known to cause essential fructosuria.

At a cost of 4400 AED, the KHK Gene Fructosuria Essential Genetic Test is an investment in personal health, offering crucial insights for affected individuals or those at risk. Understanding one’s genetic predisposition to essential fructosuria can help in making informed dietary choices and in the management of this condition, even though it is generally considered to have a benign prognosis. DNA Labs UAE, with its state-of-the-art facilities and expert team, ensures accurate and reliable test results, providing a solid foundation for personalized health management strategies.

KHK Gene Fructosuria Essential Genetic Test

Welcome to DNA Labs UAE, where we offer the KHK Gene Fructosuria Essential Genetic Test. This test is designed to analyze mutations in the KHK gene, which is responsible for producing an enzyme called ketohexokinase involved in fructose metabolism.

Test Details

The KHK gene plays a crucial role in metabolizing fructose. Mutations in this gene can lead to a condition called fructosuria, where individuals are unable to properly metabolize fructose. Our essential NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing utilizes advanced sequencing technology to analyze multiple genes simultaneously.

Components and Price

The cost of the KHK Gene Fructosuria Essential Genetic Test is 4400.0 AED. The test requires a blood or extracted DNA sample, or alternatively, one drop of blood on an FTA card.

Report Delivery

You can expect to receive your test results within 3 to 4 weeks.

Method

We utilize NGS technology to perform the KHK Gene Fructosuria Essential Genetic Test. This technology allows us to accurately sequence and identify specific variations or mutations in the KHK gene.

Test Type

The KHK Gene Fructosuria Essential Genetic Test falls under the category of metabolic disorders.

Doctor

Our general physician will oversee the KHK Gene Fructosuria Essential Genetic Test.

Test Department

The KHK Gene Fructosuria Essential Genetic Test is conducted in our Genetics department.

Pre Test Information

Prior to the test, we recommend providing the clinical history of the patient who will undergo the KHK Gene Fructosuria Essential NGS Genetic DNA Test. Additionally, a genetic counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with Fructosuria essential.

Conclusion

The KHK Gene Fructosuria Essential Genetic Test is an invaluable tool for identifying the underlying genetic cause of fructosuria. By analyzing mutations in the KHK gene, we can provide a diagnosis and valuable information for managing and treating the condition. Trust DNA Labs UAE for accurate and reliable genetic testing.

Test Details

The KHK gene is responsible for producing an enzyme called ketohexokinase, which is involved in the metabolism of fructose. Mutations in the KHK gene can lead to a condition called fructosuria, where individuals are unable to properly metabolize fructose.

Essential NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing refers to a type of genetic testing that uses advanced sequencing technology to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the context of fructosuria, essential NGS genetic testing can be used to identify mutations in the KHK gene that may be causing the condition.

This type of genetic testing involves obtaining a DNA sample from the individual, usually through a blood or saliva sample. The DNA is then sequenced using NGS technology, which can identify specific variations or mutations in the KHK gene. These mutations can help diagnose fructosuria and provide valuable information for the management and treatment of the condition.

Overall, essential NGS genetic testing for the KHK gene can be a useful tool in identifying the underlying genetic cause of fructosuria and guiding appropriate medical interventions.
