Methylation Mechanisms Report

Methylation MechanismsMethylation mechanisms report is used to identify genetic variants associated with methylation disorders, a group of rare genetic disorders that affect DNA methylation, a chemical modification that regulates gene expression. Methylation disorders are caused by mutations in genes involved in DNA methylation and demethylation, and this report tests for genetic variants that are known to affect these processes.More than 35 genes analyzed It is recommended if: This report is designed for individuals with a family history of methylation disorders or individuals with symptoms of the conditions, such as developmental delay, intellectual disability, and immune dysfunction. Genetic testing can confirm a diagnosis, provide information on disease severity and progression, and inform treatment and management decisions. Testing can also inform family planning decisions and provide reassurance for unaffected family members. List of main conditions: Methionine Adenosyltransfer
