The SLC45A2 gene albinism oculocutaneous type 4 genetic test is a specialized diagnostic procedure designed to identify mutations in the SLC45A2 gene, which are responsible for causing oculocutaneous albinism type 4 (OCA4). OCA4 is a form of albinism characterized by reduced pigmentation in the hair, skin, and eyes, and can also lead to vision problems. This condition is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern, meaning that two copies of the mutated gene, one from each parent, are necessary for an individual to be affected.

The test is conducted at DNA Labs UAE, a reputable facility known for its advanced genetic testing services. The procedure involves collecting a DNA sample, usually through a blood draw or cheek swab, which is then analyzed in the lab to detect the presence of mutations in the SLC45A2 gene. This test is crucial for the accurate diagnosis of OCA4, enabling affected individuals and their families to receive proper genetic counseling and to understand the implications of the condition.

The cost of the SLC45A2 gene albinism oculocutaneous type 4 genetic test at DNA Labs UAE is 4400 AED. This cost reflects the comprehensive nature of the test, from sample collection to detailed genetic analysis and reporting. For families and individuals seeking clarity on OCA4 status, this test provides essential genetic insights that can guide medical and personal decision-making.

SLC45A2 Gene Albinism oculocutaneous type 4 Genetic Test

At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the SLC45A2 Gene Albinism oculocutaneous type 4 Genetic Test for AED 4400.0. This test is designed to identify variations or mutations in the SLC45A2 gene, which is associated with oculocutaneous albinism type 4 (OCA4).

Test Details

OCA4 is a rare genetic disorder characterized by reduced or absent pigmentation of the skin, hair, and eyes. Our NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology allows us to accurately diagnose OCA4 and provide information about the severity and potential complications of the condition.

Early diagnosis and management of OCA4 are crucial in preventing or reducing the risk of vision problems, skin cancer, and other complications associated with the condition. We also recommend genetic counseling for individuals and families affected by OCA4 to discuss the inheritance pattern and the risk of passing the condition to future generations.
