Understanding Your GNE Gene Test
Nonaka myopathy is a rare inherited muscle disorder caused by mutations in the GNE gene. Our test uses Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology – the gold standard in genetic testing – to thoroughly examine your GNE gene for any abnormalities. This isn’t just a simple screening; it’s a comprehensive analysis that provides definitive answers about your genetic makeup and potential risk for developing this condition.

This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Progressive muscle weakness, especially in the legs
