ABAT Gene GABAtransaminase Deficiency NGS Genetic DNA Test
Introduction
The ABAT Gene GABAtransaminase Deficiency NGS Genetic DNA Test is a cutting-edge diagnostic tool that helps identify genetic mutations associated with GABA-transaminase deficiency, a metabolic disorder that can lead to neurological complications. Understanding your genetic health is crucial for making informed decisions about your well-being and that of your family.
What the Test Measures
This test uses Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to detect mutations in the ABAT gene, which encodes the enzyme GABA-transaminase. By analyzing your DNA, we can determine if you carry mutations that may affect your metabolism of GABA, an important neurotransmitter in the brain.
Who Should Consider This Test
This test is recommended for individuals who exhibit symptoms of metabolic disorders, particularly those related to neurological issues such as seizures, developmental delays, or cognitive impairments. Additionally, if there is a family history of GABA-transaminase deficiency, genetic counseling and testing may be advisable.
Benefits of Taking the Test
- Early diagnosis of potential metabolic disorders.
- Informed decision-making regarding treatment options.
- Understanding of hereditary risks for family members.
- Access to tailored management strategies for affected individuals.
Understanding Your Results
Once the test is completed, our genetic specialists will provide a comprehensive report detailing any mutations found. This report will help you and your healthcare provider make informed decisions about your health and any necessary interventions.
