SDHAF1 Gene Mitochondrial Complex II Deficiency Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the SDHAF1 Gene Mitochondrial Complex II Deficiency Genetic Test for individuals experiencing neurological disorders. This test aims to diagnose and understand the genetic basis of mitochondrial complex II deficiency caused by mutations in the SDHAF1 gene.
Test Details
The SDHAF1 gene plays a crucial role in the production of a protein called succinate dehydrogenase complex assembly factor 1. This protein is responsible for the assembly and function of mitochondrial complex II, which is essential for generating energy in the form of ATP.
A deficiency in mitochondrial complex II due to mutations in the SDHAF1 gene can lead to mitochondrial complex II deficiency. This condition is characterized by various symptoms, including muscle weakness, exercise intolerance, developmental delays, neurological problems, and potentially life-threatening complications.

Pre Test Information
Prior to undergoing the SDHAF1 Gene Mitochondrial Complex II Deficiency Genetic Test, it is recommended to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session may be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by SDHAF1 Gene Mitochondrial Complex II Deficiency.
NGS Technology
Our genetic testing utilizes Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology. NGS allows for the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes, including the SDHAF1 gene. By identifying any variants or mutations in the SDHAF1 gene, this testing method can aid in confirming a diagnosis, understanding the genetic basis of the condition, and providing information for genetic counseling and family planning.

Test Details |
The SDHAF1 gene is responsible for providing instructions to produce a protein called succinate dehydrogenase complex assembly factor 1. This protein is involved in the assembly and function of mitochondrial complex II, also known as succinate dehydrogenase. Mitochondrial complex II is a crucial component of the electron transport chain, which is responsible for generating energy in the form of ATP. A deficiency in mitochondrial complex II due to mutations in the SDHAF1 gene can lead to a condition called mitochondrial complex II deficiency. This condition is characterized by a wide range of symptoms, including muscle weakness, exercise intolerance, developmental delays, neurological problems, and potentially life-threatening complications. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a type of genetic testing that utilizes advanced sequencing technologies to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the context of SDHAF1 gene mutations, NGS genetic testing can be used to identify any variants or mutations in the SDHAF1 gene that may be causing mitochondrial complex II deficiency. This type of testing can help in confirming a diagnosis, understanding the genetic basis of the condition, and providing information for genetic counseling and family planning. |
