The PLEC Gene Muscular Dystrophy Limb-Girdle Type 2Q Genetic Test is a specialized diagnostic examination aimed at identifying mutations in the PLEC gene, which are associated with Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy Type 2Q (LGMD2Q). This condition is a part of a group of genetic muscle diseases known for weakening and wasting away of the limb muscles, particularly around the hips and shoulders (limb-girdle area). The test is crucial for individuals showing symptoms of the disease or those with a family history, as it can confirm the diagnosis and help in managing the condition effectively.

Performed at DNA Labs UAE, a leading facility in genetic testing, this test involves analyzing the patient’s DNA to look for specific mutations in the PLEC gene that are known to cause LGMD2Q. The process is meticulous and requires a sample of the patient’s blood or saliva.

The cost of the PLEC Gene Muscular Dystrophy Limb-Girdle Type 2Q Genetic Test at DNA Labs UAE is 4400 AED. Although the price might seem high, it reflects the sophisticated technology and expertise required to accurately identify mutations in the PLEC gene. For patients and families affected by LGMD2Q, this test offers valuable insights into the condition, enabling informed decisions about treatment and management strategies.

Pre Test Information

Before undergoing the PLEC Gene Muscular Dystrophy Limb-Girdle Type 2Q Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient who is being tested. Additionally, a genetic counseling session may be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with this genetic condition.

Test Details

The PLEC gene is associated with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2Q. This gene provides instructions for making a protein called plectin. NGS technology, which stands for Next-Generation Sequencing, is used to sequence the DNA of an individual and identify any mutations or variations in specific genes, including the PLEC gene. This genetic testing can help diagnose limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2Q and provide information about the specific genetic variant causing the condition. The results of this test can be useful for genetic counseling, understanding disease progression, and potentially guiding treatment options or management strategies.

Test Details

The PLEC gene is associated with a type of limb-girdle muscular dystrophy called type 2Q. Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) is a group of genetic disorders that primarily affect the muscles in the hips and shoulders. Type 2Q is caused by mutations in the PLEC gene, which provides instructions for making a protein called plectin.

NGS stands for Next-Generation Sequencing, which is a high-throughput DNA sequencing technology. NGS genetic testing involves sequencing the DNA of an individual to identify any mutations or variations in specific genes, including the PLEC gene in this case.

NGS genetic testing for PLEC gene mutations can help diagnose limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2Q and provide information about the specific genetic variant causing the condition. This information can be useful for genetic counseling, understanding disease progression, and potentially guiding treatment options or management strategies.
