SLC7A7 Gene LYSINURIC PROTEIN INTOLERANCE Genetic Test
Are you concerned about Lysinuric Protein Intolerance (LPI)? DNA Labs UAE offers a comprehensive genetic test to diagnose this rare genetic disorder.
Test Details
The SLC7A7 gene is responsible for producing a protein called the Lysinuric Protein. LPI is a rare genetic disorder caused by mutations in the SLC7A7 gene. Our Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology allows us to analyze the DNA sequence of the SLC7A7 gene and identify any mutations or variants that may be present.
This test is useful in confirming a diagnosis, identifying carriers of the condition, and providing genetic counseling for affected individuals and their families. It can also help guide treatment and management strategies for individuals with LPI.

Pre Test Information
Before undergoing the SLC7A7 Gene LYSINURIC PROTEIN INTOLERANCE Genetic Test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by the condition.
Symptoms and Diagnosis
LPI is characterized by the body’s inability to properly transport certain amino acids, specifically lysine, arginine, and ornithine. This leads to a buildup of these amino acids in the blood and a deficiency in their availability to cells and tissues.
Common symptoms of LPI include growth delays, muscle weakness, osteoporosis, kidney problems, and lung complications. However, symptoms may vary from person to person.
Our genetic test can help diagnose LPI and determine the specific genetic cause of the condition.
Conclusion
If you suspect Lysinuric Protein Intolerance, our SLC7A7 Gene LYSINURIC PROTEIN INTOLERANCE Genetic Test can provide you with valuable insights. Early diagnosis and genetic counseling can help manage the condition effectively. Contact DNA Labs UAE today to schedule your test.
