Find Clarity About Your Muscle Health with DAG1 Genetic Testing
When muscle weakness affects your daily life or you worry about family history of muscular dystrophy, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Our DAG1 Gene Muscular Dystrophy-Dystroglycanopathy Type C9 NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the answers you need to take control of your health journey. For just ZAR 6,700, gain peace of mind and clarity about your genetic risk factors.
Understanding Your DAG1 Genetic Test
The DAG1 gene plays a crucial role in maintaining muscle structure and function. When mutations occur in this gene, it can lead to limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type C9 – a condition that affects the muscles around your shoulders and hips. Our advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology examines your DAG1 gene with exceptional accuracy, identifying even the smallest genetic variations that could impact your muscle health.
This isn’t just a test – it’s a comprehensive health assessment that includes genetic counselling to help you understand your results and their implications for you and your family.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Progressive muscle weakness in your shoulders, hips, or thighs
- Difficulty climbing stairs or rising from chairs
- Family history of muscular dystrophy or unexplained muscle conditions
- Unexplained elevated muscle enzymes in blood tests
- Planning for pregnancy with family history of muscle disorders
Many South Africans live with unexplained muscle symptoms for years. Early genetic testing can provide the answers needed to manage symptoms effectively and plan for the future.

- Personalised Management: Understand your specific condition to tailor exercise and treatment plans
