SDHAF2 Gene Pheochromocytoma type 5 Genetic Test
Welcome to DNA Labs UAE, where we offer the SDHAF2 Gene Pheochromocytoma type 5 Genetic Test. This test is designed to detect mutations in the SDHAF2 gene, which is associated with a rare genetic condition called Pheochromocytoma type 5.
Test Components and Price
The SDHAF2 Gene Pheochromocytoma type 5 Genetic Test is priced at 4400.0 AED. The test requires a blood sample, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA Card.
Report Delivery and Method
After the sample is collected, the report will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks. The test is performed using NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology, which allows for the analysis of multiple genes simultaneously.
Test Type and Doctor
The SDHAF2 Gene Pheochromocytoma type 5 Genetic Test falls under the category of cancer genetic testing. It is recommended to consult with an oncologist for this test.
Test Department and Pre Test Information
The test is conducted in the Genetics department. Before undergoing the SDHAF2 Gene Pheochromocytoma type 5 NGS Genetic DNA Test, it is important 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 the SDHAF2 gene.
Test Details
The SDHAF2 gene is associated with Pheochromocytoma type 5, a rare condition characterized by the development of tumors in the adrenal glands. These tumors produce hormones like adrenaline and noradrenaline.
NGS genetic testing is a more advanced and efficient method compared to traditional Sanger sequencing. It can detect various types of genetic mutations, including single nucleotide variants, insertions, deletions, and structural rearrangements. By analyzing the DNA of an individual, NGS can identify any genetic changes in the SDHAF2 gene that may contribute to the development of Pheochromocytoma type 5.
Benefits of Genetic Testing
Genetic testing for Pheochromocytoma type 5 can help in the diagnosis, risk assessment, and management of individuals and their families who may be at risk for this condition. It also provides valuable information for genetic counseling and family planning decisions.
