The TCN2 gene plays a crucial role in the body’s processing of vitamin B12, an essential nutrient for the development of the nervous system and the production of blood cells. A deficiency in Transcobalamin II, a protein encoded by the TCN2 gene, can lead to a rare but serious condition characterized by megaloblastic anemia, failure to thrive, and neurological disorders due to impaired vitamin B12 transport and cellular uptake.

To diagnose this condition, a genetic test focusing on the TCN2 gene can be conducted. This test looks for mutations in the TCN2 gene that are known to cause Transcobalamin II deficiency. Early detection through genetic testing is crucial for managing the condition effectively, as treatment typically involves vitamin B12 supplementation, which can significantly improve outcomes if started early.

In the UAE, DNA Labs offers this specific genetic test for Transcobalamin II deficiency. The test is priced at 4400 AED and is conducted in their state-of-the-art facilities. DNA Labs UAE is known for its commitment to providing accurate, reliable, and confidential genetic testing services, ensuring that individuals undergoing the test receive comprehensive support and guidance throughout the testing process.

Test Details:

The TCN2 gene encodes for transcobalamin II (TCII), a protein involved in the transport of vitamin B12 (cobalamin) in the body. Transcobalamin II deficiency is a rare genetic disorder characterized by impaired vitamin B12 transport, leading to low levels of active vitamin B12 in the blood.

NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a high-throughput method used to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the context of TCN2 gene testing, NGS can be used to identify mutations or variations in the TCN2 gene that may be responsible for transcobalamin II deficiency. This can help diagnose individuals with the condition and provide information for genetic counseling and potential treatment options.

NGS genetic testing typically involves extracting DNA from a patient’s blood or saliva sample, followed by sequencing the DNA to identify any variations or mutations in the TCN2 gene. The results of the test can help determine if a person has a genetic predisposition to transcobalamin II deficiency and guide appropriate management and treatment strategies.
