PIGQ Gene Neurodevelopmental Disorder Genetic Test
Are you concerned about a potential genetic disorder in your family? DNA Labs UAE offers the PIGQ Gene Neurodevelopmental Disorder Genetic Test, which can provide valuable insights into this condition. Read on to learn more about the test and its benefits.
Test Details
The PIGQ (Phosphatidylinositol Glycan Anchor Biosynthesis, Class Q) gene is crucial for the development and maintenance of the nervous system. Mutations in this gene have been associated with a rare neurodevelopmental disorder called PIGQ-related disorder.
PIGQ-related disorder is characterized by developmental delay, intellectual disability, seizures, and physical abnormalities. Individuals with this condition may also have distinctive facial features. To diagnose PIGQ-related disorder, we offer a genetic test called Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS).
NGS is a high-throughput sequencing technology that allows for the rapid and cost-effective analysis of multiple genes simultaneously. In the case of PIGQ-related disorder, NGS can identify mutations or variations in the PIGQ gene that may be causing the neurodevelopmental symptoms.
How the Test Works
To perform the PIGQ Gene Neurodevelopmental Disorder Genetic Test, we require a DNA sample. This can be obtained through a blood sample, saliva sample, or one drop of blood on an FTA card. The sample is then processed using NGS technology.
The test results are typically delivered within 3 to 4 weeks. Our team of neurologists and geneticists will analyze the data to identify any mutations or variations in the PIGQ gene. These results can help confirm a diagnosis of PIGQ-related disorder and provide valuable information for medical management and genetic counseling.
Benefits of Early Diagnosis
While there is currently no cure for PIGQ-related disorder, early diagnosis through genetic testing can make a significant difference in the lives of affected individuals. It allows for the implementation of appropriate treatment and support strategies.
Genetic counseling is also an essential part of the process. We recommend a genetic counseling session to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by PIGQ-related disorder. This session will provide a comprehensive understanding of the genetic patterns within the family and help guide future family planning decisions.
Test Cost and Availability
The PIGQ Gene Neurodevelopmental Disorder Genetic Test is available at DNA Labs UAE for a cost of 4400.0 AED. We accept blood samples, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card as sample conditions.
If you suspect PIGQ-related disorder in your family, we recommend consulting with a neurologist who specializes in neurological disorders. Our test department is staffed with genetics experts who are dedicated to providing accurate and reliable results.

PIGQ (Phosphatidylinositol Glycan Anchor Biosynthesis, Class Q) is a gene that plays a crucial role in the development and maintenance of the nervous system. Mutations in the PIGQ gene have been associated with a neurodevelopmental disorder called PIGQ-related disorder. PIGQ-related disorder is a rare genetic condition characterized by developmental delay, intellectual disability, seizures, and various physical abnormalities. Individuals with this disorder may also have distinctive facial features, such as a high forehead, wide-set eyes, and a broad nasal bridge. To diagnose PIGQ-related disorder, a genetic test called Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) can be performed. NGS is a high-throughput sequencing technology that allows for the rapid and cost-effective analysis of multiple genes simultaneously. In the case of PIGQ-related disorder, NGS can identify mutations or variations in the PIGQ gene that may be causing the neurodevelopmental symptoms. NGS genetic testing for PIGQ-related disorder involves obtaining a DNA sample, typically through a blood sample or saliva sample. The DNA is then sequenced using NGS technology, and the resulting data is analyzed to identify any mutations or variations in the PIGQ gene. The results of the NGS genetic test can help confirm a diagnosis of PIGQ-related disorder and provide valuable information for medical management and genetic counseling. While there is currently no cure for PIGQ-related disorder, early diagnosis through genetic testing can help guide treatment and support strategies for individuals with this condition. |
