Genetic examinations list

Filter by name:

Cystic fibrosis – 50 mutations + Tn variants of IVS8 in the CFTR gene

Testing for the 50 most common CFTR gene mutations and determination of polymorphism in intron 8 (IVS8 Tn/TGn). These 50 mutations represent over 92% of the findings in patients diagnosed with CF in the Czech population using fragmentation analysis.

Material:

Peripheral blood, Isolated DNA from blood

Turnover Time:

3 weeks

STATIM

3 days

Spinal muscular atrophy – determination of copy number of exon 7 and 8 in the SMN1 gene

Examination of SMN1 and SMN2 genes associated with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) by MLPA method. This concerns an autosomal recessive disease that is most often associated with homozygous deletion of exon 7 in the SMN1 gene (almost 95% of all patients with SMA).

Material:

Peripheral blood, Isolated DNA from blood

Turnover Time:

3 weeks

STATIM

3 days

AR deafness – detection of 35delG GJB2 mutation

Testing for 35delG mutation in the GJB2 gene responsible for AR hereditary, non-syndromic disorder/hearing loss (deafness).

Material:

Peripheral blood, Isolated DNA from blood

Turnover Time:

3 weeks

STATIM

3 days

Response to hormonal stimulation – Ser680Asn polymorphism in the FSHR FSHR gene

Testing for p.Ser680Asn polymorphism in the FSH receptor gene (FSHR) by real-time PCR. This is aimed at investigating the Ser680Asn to Ser680Ser change that is associated with low sensitivity of FSHr to gonadotropins.

Material:

Peripheral blood, Isolated DNA from blood

Turnover Time:

3 weeks

STATIM

3 days
