PLEKHG5 Gene Spinal Muscular Atrophy Distal Autosomal Recessive Type 4 Genetic Test
Test Details
The PLEKHG5 gene is associated with a specific type of spinal muscular atrophy called distal spinal muscular atrophy, autosomal recessive type 4 (DSMA4). This condition is characterized by muscle weakness and wasting, primarily affecting the muscles in the hands and feet.
NGS Technology
NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a type of genetic testing that allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes, including the PLEKHG5 gene. It uses advanced sequencing technology to examine the DNA sequence of these genes and identify any genetic variants or mutations that may be present.

Pre Test Information
Clinical History of Patient who is going for PLEKHG5 Gene Spinal muscular atrophy distal, autosomal recessive type 4 NGS Genetic DNA Test A Genetic Counselling session to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with PLEKHG5 Gene Spinal muscular atrophy distal, autosomal recessive type 4.
Benefits of Test
By performing an NGS genetic test for the PLEKHG5 gene, healthcare professionals can determine if there are any disease-causing mutations or variants in this gene that may be contributing to the individual’s symptoms of DSMA4. This information can be helpful in confirming a diagnosis, providing prognostic information, and guiding treatment decisions.
