Find Answers for Unexplained Neurological Symptoms with C12ORF65 Gene Testing
When your family faces mysterious health challenges like developmental delays, muscle weakness, or vision problems, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Our C12ORF65 gene test provides the clarity you need to understand combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency type 7 – a serious mitochondrial disorder that affects energy production in your body’s cells. Using cutting-edge NGS technology, we deliver precise results that can transform your family’s health journey.
Understanding the C12ORF65 Gene Test
This advanced genetic test examines the C12ORF65 gene for mutations that cause combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency type 7. This condition disrupts your body’s ability to produce energy efficiently, leading to progressive neurological symptoms. Our Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology provides comprehensive analysis with 99.9% accuracy, giving you reliable answers about this inherited condition.
Unlike basic genetic tests, our NGS approach examines the entire gene sequence, ensuring no mutation goes undetected. This thorough analysis is essential for accurate diagnosis and proper management of this complex disorder.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your family members experience:
- Unexplained developmental delays in children
- Progressive muscle weakness or loss of coordination
- Vision problems or optic atrophy
- Learning difficulties or intellectual disability
- Family history of similar neurological symptoms
- Multiple affected family members suggesting inheritance patterns
Many South African families have found answers through this test when traditional medical evaluations provided incomplete explanations.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Health
Getting tested for C12ORF65 mutations offers life-changing benefits:
- Accurate Diagnosis: End the diagnostic odyssey and get definitive answers
- Personalised Treatment: Guide medical management based on your specific genetic profile
- Family Planning: Make informed decisions about future pregnancies
- Early Intervention: Start appropriate therapies before symptoms progress
- Peace of Mind: Reduce anxiety by understanding your genetic status
Early detection can significantly improve quality of life and help prevent complications associated with this progressive disorder.
Understanding Your Test Results
We understand that waiting for genetic test results can be stressful. Our team provides clear, compassionate explanations of your results:
- Positive Result: Indicates a mutation in the C12ORF65 gene. Our genetic counsellors will explain what this means for your health and provide guidance on next steps
- Negative Result: No disease-causing mutations were found, providing reassurance about this specific condition
- Uncertain Variant: Sometimes we find genetic changes with unknown significance. We’ll explain what this means and recommend appropriate follow-up
Every result includes a comprehensive consultation with our genetic specialists to ensure you fully understand the implications for your health and family.
