Find Clarity for Your Child’s Metabolic Health
When your child shows unexplained symptoms or developmental concerns, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Our AHCY Gene Hypermethioninemia Genetic DNA Test provides the definitive answers you need to understand potential metabolic disorders and take proactive steps for your child’s wellbeing.
Understanding the AHCY Gene Test
This advanced genetic test examines the AHCY gene, which plays a crucial role in your body’s methionine metabolism process. When this gene doesn’t function properly, it can lead to hypermethioninemia – a condition where methionine builds up in the blood, potentially affecting neurological development and overall health.
Using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, we analyse your DNA with 99.9% accuracy to identify any variations in the AHCY gene that could impact S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase function.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if your child experiences:
- Unexplained developmental delays or learning difficulties
- Muscle weakness or coordination problems
- Abnormal blood test results showing elevated methionine levels
- Family history of metabolic disorders
- Unexplained neurological symptoms
- Feeding difficulties or failure to thrive in infancy
Early detection through genetic testing can provide crucial insights for managing your child’s health effectively.
