Understanding RAB39B Gene X-Linked Intellectual Disability: Your Path to Clarity
When intellectual disability runs in families, particularly affecting males, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Our RAB39B gene test provides the answers you need to understand the genetic factors behind X-linked intellectual disability type 72. Using cutting-edge Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, we offer precise, reliable results that can transform your family’s healthcare journey.
What This Test Reveals About Your Genetic Health
The RAB39B gene plays a crucial role in brain development and function. Mutations in this gene can lead to X-linked intellectual disability type 72, a condition that primarily affects males and can be passed through female carriers. Our test doesn’t just identify the presence of mutations – it provides a comprehensive understanding of your genetic risk factors, helping you make informed decisions about family planning and healthcare management.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important for families experiencing:
- Multiple cases of intellectual disability affecting male family members
- Unexplained developmental delays in boys
- Family history suggesting X-linked inheritance patterns
- Concerns about carrier status in female family members
- Planning for future pregnancies with known family history
If you’ve noticed these patterns in your family across generations, genetic testing can provide the clarity needed for proactive healthcare planning.
