Understanding FKTN Gene and Walker-Warburg Syndrome: NGS Genetic DNA Test Cost INR 20,000, Symptoms, and Diagnosis

Walker-Warburg Syndrome is a rare genetic disorder that affects the development of the brain and muscles. This condition is caused by mutations in the FKTN gene, which provides instructions for making a protein that is essential for the normal development of muscle and brain tissues.

Walker-Warburg Syndrome is a severe and life-threatening condition that is usually diagnosed in the first few months of life. The symptoms of this condition can vary widely and may include:

• Severe muscle weakness and hypotonia
• Developmental delay
• Intellectual disability
• Seizures
• Eye abnormalities
• Brain malformations

Because of the severity of this condition, it is important to get an accurate diagnosis as early as possible. Genetic testing is one of the most effective ways to diagnose Walker-Warburg Syndrome. Specifically, Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) genetic testing can identify mutations in the FKTN gene that cause this condition.

At DNA Labs India, we offer NGS genetic testing for Walker-Warburg Syndrome. Our test has a cost of INR 20,000 and provides accurate and reliable results that can help with diagnosis and treatment planning.

The NGS genetic testing process involves extracting DNA from a blood or saliva sample and sequencing it to identify any mutations in the FKTN gene. Our test is highly sensitive and can detect even small mutations that may be missed by other testing methods.

If you suspect that your child may have Walker-Warburg Syndrome, it is important to talk to your doctor about genetic testing. Early diagnosis and intervention can help improve outcomes for children with this condition.

At DNA Labs India, we are committed to providing high-quality genetic testing services that can help families get the answers they need. Contact us today to learn more about our NGS genetic testing for Walker-Warburg Syndrome.
