ZIC2 Gene Holoprosencephaly type 5 Genetic Test
Welcome to DNA Labs UAE, where we offer the ZIC2 Gene Holoprosencephaly type 5 Genetic Test. This test is designed to diagnose individuals with holoprosencephaly type 5, a condition characterized by abnormal brain development. By analyzing the ZIC2 gene using NGS genetic testing, we can identify any mutations or variations that may be associated with this disorder.
Test Components and Price
The ZIC2 Gene Holoprosencephaly type 5 Genetic Test costs 4400.0 AED. The test requires a blood or extracted DNA sample, or one drop of blood on an FTA card.
Report Delivery and Method
After the sample is collected, the report will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks. The test utilizes NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) technology, which allows for the simultaneous sequencing of multiple genes or even the entire genome.
Test Type and Doctor
The ZIC2 Gene Holoprosencephaly type 5 Genetic Test falls under the category of Dysmorphology. It is recommended for individuals seeking diagnosis and management of this condition to consult with a Pediatrics doctor.
Test Department and Pre-Test Information
The ZIC2 Gene Holoprosencephaly type 5 Genetic Test is conducted in our Genetics department. Before undergoing the test, it is important to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a Genetic Counselling session is recommended to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by ZIC2 Gene Holoprosencephaly type 5 NGS Genetic DNA Test gene ZIC2.
Test Details
The ZIC2 gene is associated with holoprosencephaly type 5, a disorder characterized by abnormal brain development. This condition results in the failure of the brain to divide into two hemispheres, leading to various neurological and physical abnormalities.
NGS genetic testing is a more advanced and efficient method compared to traditional Sanger sequencing. By analyzing the ZIC2 gene using NGS techniques, we can identify any mutations or variations that may contribute to the development of holoprosencephaly type 5.
Collecting a blood or saliva sample from the individual, isolating the DNA, and sequencing the gene using NGS techniques are involved in the ZIC2 Gene Holoprosencephaly type 5 Genetic Test. The results of the test will be analyzed to determine if there are any mutations or variations in the ZIC2 gene.
Please note that genetic testing for holoprosencephaly type 5 and other genetic conditions should be performed and interpreted by qualified healthcare professionals, such as geneticists or genetic counselors, who can provide appropriate guidance and support based on the test results.

Test Details |
The ZIC2 gene is associated with a condition called holoprosencephaly type 5. Holoprosencephaly is a disorder characterized by abnormal brain development, specifically the failure of the brain to divide into two hemispheres. This can result in a range of neurological and physical abnormalities. NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a type of genetic testing that allows for the simultaneous sequencing of multiple genes or even the entire genome. It is a more advanced and efficient method compared to traditional Sanger sequencing. The ZIC2 gene can be analyzed using NGS genetic testing to identify any mutations or variations in the gene that may be associated with holoprosencephaly type 5. This can help in diagnosing individuals with the condition and provide valuable information for genetic counseling and management of the disorder. NGS genetic testing for the ZIC2 gene may involve collecting a blood or saliva sample from the individual, isolating the DNA, and sequencing the gene using NGS techniques. The results of the test can then be analyzed to determine if there are any mutations or variations in the ZIC2 gene that may be contributing to the development of holoprosencephaly type 5. It is important to note that genetic testing for holoprosencephaly type 5 and other genetic conditions should be performed and interpreted by qualified healthcare professionals, such as geneticists or genetic counselors, who can provide appropriate guidance and support based on the test results. |
