Test Overview & Methodology
This advanced genetic test analyses the entire GATA2 gene using Next‑Generation Sequencing to diagnose Immunodeficiency Type 21 (MonoMAC syndrome) with 99.9% diagnostic sensitivity. The targeted NGS approach covers both coding and flanking intronic regions, ensuring comprehensive mutation detection.
| Feature | Our GATA2 NGS Test | Closest Alternative (WES-based screening) |
|---|---|---|
| Methodology | Targeted NGS (full gene + flanking regions) | Whole Exome Sequencing (broader, less focused) |
| Turnaround Time | 3–4 Weeks | 8–12 Weeks |
| Diagnostic Yield for GATA2 | 99.9% sensitivity | ~80–90% (may miss deep intronic variants) |
| Price (AED) | 2,800 | 4,500–6,000 |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
“GATA2 deficiency presents with a wide spectrum of clinical signs—ranging from severe infections to myelodysplasia. This test should always be correlated with your complete hematological and immunological work‑up by a specialist. I encourage you to discuss the results with your treating physician to integrate the genetic findings into a personalised care plan.”
— Lina Osama Zaki Quteineh, Consultant Medical Genetics (DHA Registration ID: 9294403)
Medication Advisory
Do not discontinue any prescribed medication without consulting your doctor. This test does not replace ongoing clinical management.
Safety Exclusion Criteria & Emergency Red Flags
- Exclusion: Active severe infection or hemodynamic instability precluding blood draw; inability to provide informed consent. For minors, parental/legal guardian consent is mandatory under Federal Decree-Law No. 4 of 2016 on Medical Liability.
- Exclusion: Patients with a known bleeding disorder should undergo medical clearance before venipuncture.
- ER Red Flag: If you experience prolonged bleeding, uncontrolled pain, or signs of infection after sample collection, seek immediate medical attention.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What is the GATA2 gene and why is it tested for immunodeficiency?
This test sequences the entire GATA2 gene to detect mutations that cause Immunodeficiency Type 21 and MonoMAC syndrome, guiding targeted therapy and family screening.
2. How is the sample collected and what is the turnaround time?
A simple blood draw (or dried blood spot on an FTA card) is performed at home by our DHA‑licensed phlebotomist, and results are delivered in 3–4 weeks.
3. Is the GATA2 test covered by insurance in the UAE?
Many UAE insurers cover genetic testing when pre‑authorised; our team verifies your policy and directly handles the billing—contact us on WhatsApp for confirmation.
