Test Details
The STAT1 gene is responsible for encoding a protein called signal transducer and activator of transcription 1. This protein plays a crucial role in the immune system by regulating the transcription of various genes involved in immune responses.
Atypical mycobacterial infections, also known as non-tuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections, are caused by mycobacteria other than Mycobacterium tuberculosis. These infections can affect different parts of the body, such as the lungs, skin, lymph nodes, and bones.
NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a high-throughput method used to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. It allows for the detection of genetic variations, such as mutations or variants, in a person’s DNA.
In the context of atypical mycobacterial infections, NGS genetic testing can be used to identify mutations or variants in the STAT1 gene that may be associated with an increased susceptibility to these infections. Mutations in the STAT1 gene have been linked to a primary immunodeficiency disorder called STAT1 gain-of-function (GOF) mutation, which can result in an impaired immune response to infections, including atypical mycobacterial infections.
By performing NGS genetic testing on an individual suspected of having an atypical mycobacterial infection, healthcare professionals can identify any mutations or variants in the STAT1 gene that may be contributing to their susceptibility to these infections. This information can help guide treatment decisions and provide valuable insights into the underlying genetic factors involved in the development of atypical mycobacterial infections.
