Pre Test Information
Prior to undergoing the PC Gene Leigh syndrome genetic test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by PC Gene Leigh syndrome due to pyruvate carboxylase deficiency.
About PC Gene Leigh Syndrome
PC Gene Leigh syndrome is a rare genetic disorder caused by mutations in the PC gene, which encodes for the enzyme pyruvate carboxylase. This enzyme plays a crucial role in energy production by converting pyruvate into oxaloacetate in the mitochondria.
NGS Technology for Diagnosis
NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is utilized to identify mutations in the PC gene that may be causing PC Gene Leigh syndrome. This advanced sequencing technology allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes. The process involves extracting DNA from a blood sample or other tissue and sequencing it to identify any variations or mutations in the genes of interest.
Benefits of NGS Genetic Testing
NGS genetic testing not only aids in the diagnosis of PC Gene Leigh syndrome by identifying associated mutations in the PC gene but also provides valuable information about specific mutations causing the disorder. This information can be used for genetic counseling, family planning, prognosis, and treatment decisions.
Availability and Coverage
Please note that NGS genetic testing may not be available in all healthcare settings and may require a referral to a specialized genetics center or laboratory. Additionally, the cost and coverage of NGS genetic testing can vary depending on the specific testing facility and insurance coverage.

Test Details |
PC Gene Leigh syndrome is a rare genetic disorder caused by mutations in the PC gene, which encodes for the enzyme pyruvate carboxylase. Pyruvate carboxylase is responsible for an important step in energy production, converting pyruvate into oxaloacetate in the mitochondria. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a type of genetic testing that uses advanced sequencing technologies to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the case of PC Gene Leigh syndrome, NGS can be used to identify mutations in the PC gene that may be causing the disorder. NGS genetic testing typically involves extracting DNA from a blood sample or other tissue, and then sequencing the DNA to identify any variations or mutations in the genes of interest. This can help diagnose PC Gene Leigh syndrome by identifying mutations in the PC gene that are known to be associated with the disorder. NGS genetic testing can also be used to provide information about the specific mutation(s) causing the disorder, which can be useful for genetic counseling and family planning purposes. Additionally, it can help with prognosis and treatment decisions for individuals with PC Gene Leigh syndrome. It is important to note that NGS genetic testing may not be available in all healthcare settings and may require a referral to a specialized genetics center or laboratory. Additionally, the cost and coverage of NGS genetic testing can vary depending on the specific testing facility and insurance coverage. |
