This genetic test detects mutations in the COX6B1 gene, which is responsible for encoding a subunit of cytochrome c oxidase, a key enzyme in the mitochondrial respiratory chain. By identifying these mutations, healthcare providers can better understand the underlying genetic causes of mitochondrial dysfunction.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is recommended for individuals experiencing symptoms such as:
- Unexplained neurological deficits
- Developmental delays
- Muscle weakness
- Seizures
Additionally, those with a family history of mitochondrial disorders or neurological conditions should also consider this test.
