MMAB Gene Methylmalonic aciduria CblB type Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the MMAB Gene Methylmalonic aciduria CblB type Genetic Test. This test is designed to detect mutations in the MMAB gene, which is responsible for encoding the protein involved in the breakdown of certain amino acids and fatty acids in the body.
Test Details
Methylmalonic aciduria CblB type is a rare autosomal recessive disorder that affects the body’s ability to process certain proteins and fats. To diagnose this condition, we use Next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology to analyze the MMAB gene for mutations.

Pre Test Information
Before undergoing the MMAB Gene Methylmalonic aciduria CblB type NGS Genetic DNA 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 Methylmalonic aciduria CblB type.
Diagnosis and Treatment
The results of the NGS genetic test can help healthcare providers confirm a diagnosis of methylmalonic aciduria CblB type and provide information about the specific genetic changes present. Based on the results, appropriate treatment and management strategies, such as dietary modifications, vitamin B12 supplementation, and other supportive measures, can be determined.
It is crucial to note that genetic testing should always be done under the guidance of a healthcare professional or genetic counselor who can interpret the results and provide appropriate counseling and support.

| Test Details |
The MMAB gene is responsible for encoding the protein that is involved in the breakdown of certain amino acids and fatty acids in the body. Mutations in the MMAB gene can lead to a rare genetic disorder called methylmalonic aciduria CblB type. Methylmalonic aciduria CblB type is an autosomal recessive disorder, meaning that an individual must inherit two copies of the mutated gene (one from each parent) to develop the condition. This disorder affects the body’s ability to process certain proteins and fats, leading to a buildup of toxic substances in the blood and urine. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is a type of genetic test that allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes or even the entire genome. In the case of methylmalonic aciduria CblB type, NGS can be used to analyze the MMAB gene for mutations. This test can help confirm a diagnosis of the condition and provide information about the specific genetic changes that are present. The NGS genetic test for methylmalonic aciduria CblB type typically involves obtaining a sample of DNA, usually from a blood sample or cheek swab. The DNA is then sequenced using NGS technology, which identifies any mutations or variations in the MMAB gene. The results of the NGS genetic test can help healthcare providers determine the appropriate treatment and management strategies for individuals with methylmalonic aciduria CblB type. This may include dietary modifications, vitamin B12 supplementation, and other supportive measures. It’s important to note that genetic testing should always be done under the guidance of a healthcare professional or genetic counselor who can help interpret the results and provide appropriate counseling and support. |
