DMGDH Gene Dimethylglycine Dehydrogenase Deficiency NGS Genetic DNA Test
Comprehensive Genetic Screening for Metabolic Disorders
The DMGDH Gene Dimethylglycine Dehydrogenase Deficiency NGS Genetic DNA Test represents a breakthrough in genetic diagnostics for metabolic disorders. This advanced screening utilizes cutting-edge Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to identify mutations in the DMGDH gene that cause dimethylglycine dehydrogenase deficiency—a rare but significant metabolic condition affecting neurological function and overall health.
What This Test Measures and Detects
This comprehensive genetic analysis specifically targets the DMGDH gene, which encodes the enzyme dimethylglycine dehydrogenase. This enzyme plays a crucial role in the metabolism of choline and glycine, essential compounds for neurological health and cellular function. The test identifies:
- Point mutations and single nucleotide variants in the DMGDH gene
- Insertions and deletions affecting gene function
- Copy number variations that may impact enzyme production
- Specific genetic markers associated with dimethylglycine dehydrogenase deficiency
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test
This test is particularly recommended for individuals experiencing:
- Unexplained neurological symptoms including seizures or developmental delays
- Family history of metabolic disorders or unexplained infant mortality
- Elevated dimethylglycine levels in blood or urine tests
- Progressive neurological deterioration without clear diagnosis
- Planning for pregnancy with family history of metabolic conditions
Clinical Benefits of Genetic Testing
Undergoing the DMGDH Gene Dimethylglycine Dehydrogenase Deficiency test provides numerous advantages:
- Early and accurate diagnosis of metabolic disorders
- Personalized treatment and management strategies
- Informed family planning decisions
- Prevention of disease progression through early intervention
- Comprehensive genetic counseling based on specific results
- Peace of mind through definitive diagnosis
