DNA Labs India offers the AARS1 Gene CMT2N NGS Genetic DNA Test to diagnose Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2N (CMT2N), a rare genetic disorder that affects the peripheral nerves.

Symptoms of CMT2N

CMT2N is characterized by progressive muscle weakness and wasting in the feet and lower legs, which can spread to the hands and arms over time. Other symptoms may include:

• Numbness or tingling in the feet or hands

• High arches or flat feet

Diagnosis of CMT2N

The AARS1 Gene CMT2N NGS Genetic DNA Test is a comprehensive genetic test that can identify mutations in the AARS1 gene, which is responsible for producing an enzyme called alanyl-tRNA synthetase. Mutations in this gene can lead to CMT2N.

The test involves collecting a sample of the patient's DNA, typically through a blood or saliva sample, and analyzing it for mutations in the AARS1 gene. Results are typically available within a few weeks.
