The KRT10 gene plays a crucial role in the health and integrity of the skin. Mutations in this gene are associated with a rare genetic disorder known as epidermolytic hyperkeratosis (EHK), characterized by blistering and thickening of the skin. This condition, also known as bullous congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma, can significantly impact the quality of life of affected individuals.

To diagnose this condition accurately, a genetic test targeting the KRT10 gene can be conducted. DNA Labs UAE offers this specialized genetic testing service, allowing for the precise identification of mutations in the KRT10 gene. The test is crucial for confirming the diagnosis of EHK, enabling targeted management and counseling for affected individuals and their families.

The cost of the KRT10 gene test at DNA Labs UAE is 4400 AED. This investment covers the collection of a DNA sample, usually through a blood draw or cheek swab, and its subsequent analysis in the laboratory. The process involves sophisticated genetic sequencing technologies to identify any mutations in the KRT10 gene that may be responsible for the condition. Results from this test can provide essential information for the clinical management of EHK, including prognosis, potential complications, and the risk of passing the condition to future generations.

Pre Test Information

Before undergoing the KRT10 Gene Epidermolytic Hyperkeratosis Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session may be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with the KRT10 gene mutation.

Test Details

The KRT10 gene is responsible for producing a protein called keratin 10, which plays a crucial role in maintaining the structure and integrity of the epidermis. Epidermolytic hyperkeratosis (EHK) is a rare genetic disorder caused by mutations in the KRT10 gene. These mutations disrupt the normal production of keratin 10, leading to skin abnormalities.

NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a cutting-edge technology that allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes. In the case of EHK, NGS genetic testing can identify mutations in the KRT10 gene associated with the disorder. This information confirms the diagnosis of EHK and provides valuable insights into the specific genetic changes involved.

Understanding the genetic changes associated with EHK can be beneficial for genetic counseling, family planning, and potentially guiding treatment decisions.

Test Details

The KRT10 gene is responsible for providing instructions for making a protein called keratin 10. This protein is primarily found in the skin, where it helps to maintain the structure and integrity of the epidermis.

Epidermolytic hyperkeratosis (EHK) is a rare genetic disorder that is caused by mutations in the KRT10 gene. These mutations disrupt the normal production of keratin 10, leading to abnormalities in the skin.

NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a type of genetic test that uses advanced sequencing technologies to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the case of EHK, NGS genetic testing can be used to identify mutations in the KRT10 gene that are associated with the disorder.

By identifying these mutations, NGS genetic testing can help confirm a diagnosis of EHK and provide information about the specific genetic changes involved. This information can be useful for genetic counseling, family planning, and potentially guiding treatment decisions.
