Find Answers for Unexplained Neurological Symptoms
When your child or family member experiences developmental delays, muscle weakness, or neurological issues without clear cause, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Our RMND1 Gene Test offers the clarity you’ve been searching for – identifying Combined Oxidative Phosphorylation Deficiency Type 11, a mitochondrial disorder that affects how your body produces energy.
Understanding Your RMND1 Gene Test
This specialised genetic test examines the RMND1 gene using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology – the gold standard in genetic analysis. The RMND1 gene plays a crucial role in mitochondrial function, and mutations can lead to Combined Oxidative Phosphorylation Deficiency Type 11, affecting multiple organs including the brain, muscles, and nervous system.
Think of mitochondria as your body’s power plants – when they don’t function properly, your cells struggle to produce the energy needed for normal development and function. Our test provides definitive answers about whether RMND1 gene mutations are causing these energy production issues.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your family members experience:
- Unexplained developmental delays in infants or children
- Progressive neurological symptoms
- Muscle weakness or poor muscle tone
- Family history of mitochondrial disorders
- Multiple organ system involvement without clear diagnosis
- Previous inconclusive genetic testing results
Many South African families have found answers through this testing, gaining the understanding needed to pursue appropriate treatments and support.
