Understanding Your Genetic Health: ST6GAL2 Gene Testing
When you’re worried about inherited health conditions or have unexplained symptoms that might be genetic, finding clear answers can feel overwhelming. Our ST6GAL2 Gene Beta-Galactosamide Alpha-2,6-Sialyltransferase 2 Deficiency test provides the clarity and peace of mind you deserve. This specialised genetic test examines the ST6GAL2 gene, which plays a crucial role in enzyme function and cellular communication throughout your body.
What This Test Detects
The ST6GAL2 gene produces an enzyme called Beta-Galactosamide Alpha-2,6-Sialyltransferase 2, which is essential for proper cellular function and communication. When this gene has mutations, it can lead to deficiencies that affect multiple body systems. Our advanced NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology examines your DNA to identify any variations in this critical gene, providing you with definitive answers about your genetic makeup.
Who Should Consider This Test
This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Unexplained neurological symptoms or developmental delays
- Family history of metabolic or genetic disorders
- Recurrent health issues with no clear diagnosis
- Planning for pregnancy with genetic concerns
- Multiple family members with similar health challenges
