WDR36 Gene Glaucoma open angle type 1G Genetic Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the WDR36 Gene Glaucoma open angle type 1G Genetic Test. This test helps in the diagnosis of glaucoma and can provide valuable information about the genetic factors associated with the condition.
Test Details
The WDR36 gene is associated with the development of glaucoma, specifically open angle type 1G (GLC1G). This type of glaucoma is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner, meaning that a person only needs to inherit one copy of the mutated gene from either parent to develop the condition.
NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) genetic testing can be used to analyze the WDR36 gene for mutations that may be associated with GLC1G. This type of testing can identify specific changes in the DNA sequence that may be responsible for the development of the condition.
Genetic testing for GLC1G may be recommended for individuals with a family history of the condition, as well as those who have been diagnosed with glaucoma at a young age or have other risk factors for the disease. Early detection and treatment of glaucoma can help prevent vision loss and other complications associated with the condition.
Test Components and Price
The WDR36 Gene Glaucoma open angle type 1G Genetic Test is priced at 4400.0 AED.
Sample Condition
The test requires a blood sample or extracted DNA. Alternatively, one drop of blood can be collected on an FTA Card.
Report Delivery
