Pre Test Information
Before undergoing the PEX10 Gene Zellweger Syndrome Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. A genetic counseling session will also be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by the syndrome.
Test Details
The PEX10 gene is associated with Zellweger syndrome, a rare genetic disorder that affects the brain, liver, and kidneys. This syndrome is characterized by the absence or malfunction of peroxisomes, which play a crucial role in metabolic processes within cells.
NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is used to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the case of Zellweger syndrome, NGS testing can identify mutations or variations in the PEX10 gene that may be responsible for the disorder. It provides a comprehensive analysis of the entire coding region of the gene, detecting various types of genetic alterations.
By identifying specific genetic variants in the PEX10 gene, NGS testing confirms a diagnosis of Zellweger syndrome and offers valuable information for genetic counseling and family planning. It can also be used for carrier screening in individuals with a family history of the syndrome or for prenatal testing in at-risk pregnancies.

The PEX10 gene is associated with Zellweger syndrome, a rare genetic disorder that affects multiple organs, including the brain, liver, and kidneys. Zellweger syndrome is characterized by the absence or malfunction of peroxisomes, which are responsible for various metabolic processes within cells. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a type of genetic testing that uses high-throughput sequencing technology to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the context of Zellweger syndrome, NGS genetic testing can be used to identify mutations or variations in the PEX10 gene that may be responsible for the disorder. NGS testing can provide a comprehensive analysis of the entire coding region of the PEX10 gene, allowing for the detection of various types of genetic alterations, including small nucleotide changes (point mutations), insertions, deletions, and larger structural variants. By identifying specific genetic variants in the PEX10 gene, NGS testing can help confirm a diagnosis of Zellweger syndrome and provide valuable information for genetic counseling and family planning. Additionally, NGS testing may also be used for carrier screening in individuals with a family history of Zellweger syndrome or for prenatal testing in at-risk pregnancies. |
