The POLG Gene Progressive External Ophthalmoplegia with Mitochondrial Deletions Type 1 Autosomal Dominant Genetic Test is a specialized diagnostic procedure aimed at identifying mutations in the POLG gene. These mutations are associated with a specific form of progressive external ophthalmoplegia (PEO), a condition characterized by weakness of the eye muscles and other systemic symptoms due to mitochondrial abnormalities. The test is crucial for confirming the diagnosis, understanding the disease’s progression, and guiding treatment strategies.

Performed at DNA Labs UAE, the test involves analyzing the patient’s DNA to detect deletions or mutations in the POLG gene, which plays a pivotal role in mitochondrial DNA replication and repair. Mutations in this gene can lead to mitochondrial dysfunction, manifesting in various symptoms, including muscle weakness, exercise intolerance, and neurological deficits, alongside the characteristic eye muscle weakness.

The cost of the test is 4400 AED, reflecting the comprehensive analysis and the specialized technology required to accurately identify the genetic alterations associated with this condition. Given the autosomal dominant inheritance pattern of this form of PEO, the test is also valuable for family planning and genetic counseling, providing crucial information for affected individuals and their families.

A Genetic Counselling session to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with POLG Gene Progressive External Ophthalmoplegia with Mitochondrial Deletions Type 1, Autosomal Dominant.

Test Details:

Progressive External Ophthalmoplegia with Mitochondrial Deletions Type 1 (PEO1) is a genetic disorder characterized by weakness of the muscles that control eye movement (ophthalmoplegia) and other associated symptoms. It is caused by mutations in the POLG gene. The POLG gene provides instructions for making an enzyme called DNA polymerase gamma, which is involved in the replication and repair of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). Mutations in this gene can disrupt the normal functioning of DNA polymerase gamma, leading to mtDNA deletions and impairing mitochondrial function. Autosomal dominant inheritance means that an affected individual has one copy of the mutated gene and one normal copy, and the mutated gene is sufficient to cause the disorder.

NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) Genetic Test refers to a type of genetic testing that utilizes advanced sequencing technologies to rapidly analyze multiple genes simultaneously. This allows for a more comprehensive analysis of the genetic information and can be used to identify mutations in the POLG gene associated with PEO1. NGS Genetic Test for PEO1 would involve obtaining a DNA sample, usually through a blood sample or saliva sample, from the individual suspected of having the condition. The DNA is then sequenced using NGS technology to identify any mutations in the POLG gene. The results of the test can help confirm the diagnosis of PEO1 and provide information about the specific mutation present, which can be useful for genetic counseling and family planning.

It is important to note that genetic testing should be done under the guidance of a healthcare professional or genetic counselor who can provide appropriate counseling and interpretation of the results.
