Comprehensive CNTNAP4 Genetic Analysis Using Next‑Generation Sequencing
The CNTNAP4 Gene Neurodevelopmental Disorder NGS Test screens the entire coding sequence of the CNTNAP4 gene for pathogenic variants linked to autism spectrum disorder, intellectual disability, and other neurodevelopmental conditions. Employing high‑coverage Next‑Generation Sequencing (NGS), this advanced molecular assay delivers unparalleled resolution and analytical sensitivity for detecting single nucleotide variants, small indels, and copy number abnormalities.
| Feature | Our Test (CNTNAP4 NGS) | Closest Alternative (Standard Microarray) |

| Methodology | Next‑Generation Sequencing (Illumina® platform) | Chromosomal Microarray (CMA) |
| Turnaround Time | 3 to 4 weeks | 4 to 6 weeks |
| Price (UAE) | 2800 AED | 2500 – 2800 AED |
Physician Insight & Thorough Safety Protocol
“I recognise the deep anxiety families experience when seeking answers for a child’s developmental differences. This highly sensitive CNTNAP4 NGS analysis uncovers variants invisible to older methods, enabling truly individualised care plans. Please remember that genetic findings must always be correlated with a full clinical evaluation by a qualified neurologist or clinical geneticist.”

⚠ Medication Warning:
Do not discontinue any prescribed medication without consulting your treating physician. Genetic test results are not intended to replace ongoing medical management.
Exclusion Criteria & Emergency Red Flags
- Home collection is NOT suitable if the patient is experiencing an acute neurological emergency (e.g., prolonged seizures, loss of consciousness, acute paralysis). Call 998 or proceed to the nearest Emergency Department immediately.
- This genetic test cannot be performed on patients with severe anemia or coagulation disorders who cannot safely provide a blood sample.
- If the child exhibits sudden regression, inconsolable crying with fever, or difficulty breathing, seek urgent medical attention before scheduling a routine collection.
- Individuals with a history of severe adverse reaction to venipuncture must inform the phlebotomist prior to collection.
Patient Frequently Asked Questions (English & العربية)
Q1: What is the CNTNAP4 gene and its role in neurodevelopmental disorders?
A: The CNTNAP4 gene encodes a neurexin family protein critical for neuronal synapse formation and communication, and pathogenic variants can lead to conditions such as autism spectrum disorder and intellectual disability.
س1: ما هو جين CNTNAP4 وما دوره في الاضطرابات النمائية العصبية؟
ج: يُشفر جين CNTNAP4 بروتينًا من عائلة النيوركسين أساسيًا لتكوين المشابك العصبية، ويمكن أن تؤدي الطفرات فيه إلى اضطراب طيف التوحد والإعاقة الذهنية.
Q2: How is the Genetic Test performed, and what sample is required?
A: This test requires a whole blood sample (or extracted DNA / one drop blood on FTA Card) collected by a certified phlebotomist, then DNA is sequenced using Next‑Generation Sequencing technology to analyze the entire CNTNAP4 gene.
س2: كيف يُجرى اختبار الحمض النووي الوراثي بتقنية NGS وما العينة المطلوبة؟
ج: يتطلب الاختبار عينة دم كامل (أو حمض نووي مستخلص) تُجمع بواسطة فني معتمد، ثم يُحلل الجين كاملًا بتقنية التسلسل من الجيل التالي.
Q3: How should I prepare for the test and ensure accurate results?
A: Provide a detailed clinical history, participate in a pre‑ genetic counselling session to draw a family pedigree, and inform the team of any medications or supplements you are currently taking.
س3: كيف أستعد للاختبار لضمان دقة النتائج؟
ج: قدّم تاريخًا سريريًا دقيقًا، وشارك في جلسة استشارة وراثية لرسم شجرة العائلة، وأبلغ الفريق بجميع الأدوية والمكملات الحالية.
