PAX3 Gene Waardenburg Syndrome Type 1 NGS Genetic DNA Test
Introduction
The PAX3 Gene Waardenburg Syndrome Type 1 NGS Genetic DNA Test is a specialized genetic test designed to detect mutations in the PAX3 gene, which plays a critical role in the development of the neural crest and pigmentation. Waardenburg syndrome is characterized by hearing loss, changes in pigmentation, and other physical anomalies. Understanding the genetic basis of this syndrome is essential for accurate diagnosis, management, and family planning.
