Test Details
The SIX3 gene is a gene that provides instructions for making a protein involved in the development of the brain and face. Mutations in this gene can lead to a condition called holoprosencephaly type 2. Holoprosencephaly is a disorder characterized by the incomplete separation of the brain into two hemispheres. It can result in a range of neurological and facial abnormalities, including intellectual disability, seizures, feeding difficulties, and facial malformations.
NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a type of genetic testing that uses advanced sequencing technology to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the context of holoprosencephaly type 2, NGS genetic testing can identify mutations in the SIX3 gene that may be responsible for the condition. By identifying specific mutations in the SIX3 gene, NGS genetic testing can help confirm a diagnosis of holoprosencephaly type 2 and provide information about the likelihood of passing the condition on to future generations. This information can be useful for genetic counseling, family planning, and personalized medical management.
