ملخص تنفيذي: يقدم اختبار تسلسل الجين GTPBP2 دقة تشخيصية فائقة وفقاً للمعايير الطبية الإماراتية مع ضمان الخصوصية القانونية بموجب المرسوم بقانون اتحادي رقم 41 لسنة 2024.
Overview & Test Information
The GTPBP2 Genetic Test detects pathogenic variants in the entire coding region of the GTPBP2 gene, enabling precise molecular diagnosis of neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation (NBIA) in individuals and at-risk family members. It uses Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) — the gold‑standard technology — to deliver a comprehensive analysis with a rapid turnaround time of 3‑4 weeks at a cost of 2800 AED.
يقوم الاختبار بتحليل كامل الجين GTPBP2 باستخدام تقنية التسلسل من الجيل التالي لتأكيد التشخيص الجزيئي لمرض التنكس العصبي مع تراكم الحديد في الدماغ.
| Feature | Our Test (Premium NGS) | Closest Alternative (Sanger Single‑Gene Sequencing) |
|---|---|---|
| Methodology | Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) – full gene coverage | Sanger sequencing – selected exons only |
| Diagnostic Sensitivity | 99.9% (includes deep intronic variants) | ~95% (limited to targeted regions) |
| Turnaround Time | 3–4 weeks | 6–8 weeks |
| Clinical Support | Included: telephonic genetic counselling & post-test interpretation | Often not included |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocol
“Genetic testing must always be interpreted within the full clinical picture. A positive GTPBP2 variant can confirm a diagnosis of NBIA and guide family planning, but a negative result does not exclude other genetic or acquired causes of neurodegeneration. Please discuss all results with your neurologist or clinical geneticist.”

Exclusion Criteria & Emergency Red Flags
- Active severe infection or uncontrolled systemic illness that may compromise sample quality
- Bleeding disorder or anticoagulant therapy that poses a risk for phlebotomy (alternative oral swab collection may be arranged)
- Acute neurological deterioration (e.g., new‑onset seizures, loss of consciousness, stroke‑like symptoms) — seek emergency medical care immediately
- Known allergy to materials used in blood collection (e.g., latex, antiseptic)
- Children under 2 years – require a paediatric phlebotomist and additional parental consent per UAE CDS Law 2026
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
Q1: What does the GTPBP2 genetic actually look for?
Our NGS assay sequences the entire GTPBP2 gene to identify single nucleotide variants, small deletions/duplications, and copy number changes that cause neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation.

Q2: How should I prepare for the blood collection?
No fasting or dietary changes are required; simply provide your clinical history and any relevant medical reports before the home phlebotomy visit.
لا حاجة للصيام، كل ما عليك هو تقديم تاريخك الطبي قبل سحب العينة المنزلي.
Q3: When will I receive my results and who will explain them?
Your full report is delivered within 3–4 weeks, and a complimentary telephonic consultation with a genetic counsellor is included to interpret the findings.
