SGCB Gene Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy autosomal recessive type 2E Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the SGCB Gene Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy autosomal recessive type 2E Genetic Test. This test is designed to diagnose and manage limb-girdle muscular dystrophy, specifically the autosomal recessive type 2E (LGMD2E) caused by mutations in the SGCB gene.
Test Components
- Price: 4400.0 AED
Sample Condition
The sample condition required for this test includes blood, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card.
Report Delivery
The report for the SGCB Gene Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy autosomal recessive type 2E Genetic Test will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks.
Method
The test utilizes NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology to analyze multiple genes simultaneously.
Test Type
The SGCB Gene Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy autosomal recessive type 2E Genetic Test falls under the category of Neurological Disorders.
Doctor
This test is conducted under the supervision of a Neurologist.
Test Department
The SGCB Gene Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy autosomal recessive type 2E Genetic Test is conducted in our Genetics department.
Pre Test Information
Prior to the test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient who is going for the SGCB Gene Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy autosomal recessive type 2E NGS Genetic DNA Test. Additionally, a genetic counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected with the condition.
Test Details
The SGCB gene is associated with a type of limb-girdle muscular dystrophy known as autosomal recessive type 2E (LGMD2E). This form of muscular dystrophy is characterized by progressive muscle weakness and wasting, primarily affecting the muscles around the hips and shoulders. It is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, meaning that both copies of the SGCB gene must have mutations for the disease to manifest.
NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is used to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the case of LGMD2E, an NGS genetic test involves sequencing the SGCB gene to identify any mutations or variants that may be causing the disease. This test can help with the diagnosis and management of the condition.
It is crucial to note that genetic testing should only be performed by a qualified healthcare professional who can interpret the results and provide appropriate counseling and support.

The SGCB gene is associated with a type of limb-girdle muscular dystrophy called autosomal recessive type 2E (LGMD2E). This form of muscular dystrophy is characterized by progressive muscle weakness and wasting, primarily affecting the muscles around the hips and shoulders. It is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, meaning that both copies of the SGCB gene must have mutations for the disease to manifest. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a method used to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the case of LGMD2E, an NGS genetic test would involve sequencing the SGCB gene to identify any mutations or variants that may be causing the disease. This can help with the diagnosis and management of the condition. It is important to note that genetic testing should be performed by a qualified healthcare professional who can interpret the results and provide appropriate counseling and support. |
