TUBB2B Gene Microcephaly Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the TUBB2B gene microcephaly test to help diagnose and understand this neurodevelopmental disorder. Microcephaly is characterized by a significantly smaller head size and potential cognitive and developmental delays. Our advanced NGS technology allows us to analyze and identify genetic variations or mutations in an individual’s DNA.
Test Components and Price
The TUBB2B gene microcephaly test is priced at 4400.0 AED. The test can be performed using a blood sample, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card.
Report Delivery
Once the sample is received, the report will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks.
Method and Test Type
The TUBB2B gene microcephaly test utilizes NGS technology, which involves sequencing the DNA of an individual to identify specific genetic changes. This test falls under the category of dysmorphology.
Test Department and Doctor
The TUBB2B gene microcephaly test is conducted by our Genetics department, under the supervision of our experienced pediatricians.
Pre Test Information
Prior to the test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient who is undergoing the TUBB2B gene microcephaly test. Additionally, a genetic counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by the condition.
Test Details
The TUBB2B gene is associated with TUBB2B-related microcephaly. NGS testing can detect mutations or changes in the TUBB2B gene that may be responsible for the condition. This test can help confirm a diagnosis, understand the genetic cause of the condition, provide information about the inheritance pattern, and guide treatment and management decisions. It can also be used for genetic counseling and family planning purposes.
It is important to consult with a genetic counselor or healthcare professional to discuss the appropriateness, benefits, and limitations of genetic testing for TUBB2B-related microcephaly in specific cases.

Test Details |
The TUBB2B gene is associated with a condition called TUBB2B-related microcephaly. Microcephaly is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by a significantly smaller head size and potential cognitive and developmental delays. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a method used to analyze and identify genetic variations or mutations in an individual’s DNA. In the case of TUBB2B-related microcephaly, NGS testing can be used to detect mutations or changes in the TUBB2B gene that may be responsible for the condition. NGS testing involves sequencing the DNA of an individual to identify specific genetic changes. This can be done using different techniques, such as whole-exome sequencing (WES) or targeted gene panel sequencing. These tests can help diagnose TUBB2B-related microcephaly and provide information about the specific genetic mutation involved. Genetic testing for TUBB2B-related microcephaly can be helpful in confirming a diagnosis, understanding the genetic cause of the condition, providing information about the inheritance pattern, and potentially guiding treatment and management decisions. It can also be used for genetic counseling and family planning purposes. It is important to consult with a genetic counselor or healthcare professional to discuss the appropriateness, benefits, and limitations of genetic testing for TUBB2B-related microcephaly in specific cases. |
