Order details
| Test number | 8346 | 
| Sample material | 0.5 ml EDTA blood, 2x cheek swab, 1x special swab (eNAT) | 
| Test duration | 7-14 working days | 
Degenerative myelopathy exon 2 (DM exon 2)
Test specifications
| Symptom complex | neuromuscular | 
| Inheritance | autosomal recessive with age-dependent incomplete penetrance; a risk factor associated with DM is detected. | 
| Age of onset | ab 8 years  | 
| Causality | High-risk factor | 
| Gene | SOD1 | 
| Mutation | G-A | 
| Literature | OMIA:000263-9615 | 
Primary lens luxation (PLL)
Test specifications
| Symptom complex | ophthalmic | 
| Inheritance | autosomal recessive; the literature describes that 2-20% of PLL carriers (N/PLL) develop PLL in the course of their lives. Carriers therefore have an (albeit low) risk of developing PLL. | 
| Age of onset | 3-8 years  | 
| Causality | causally | 
| Gene | ADAMTS17 | 
| Mutation | G-A | 
| Literature | OMIA:000588-9615 | 
Progressive retinal atrophy (rcd3-PRA)
Test specifications
| Symptom complex | ophthalmic | 
| Inheritance | autosomal recessive | 
| Age of onset | 6-16 weeks  | 
| Causality | causally | 
| Gene | PDE6A | 
| Mutation | DEL | 
| Literature | OMIA:001314-9615 | 
Progressive retinal atrophy (prcd-PRA)
Test specifications
| Symptom complex | ophthalmic | 
| Inheritance | autosomal recessive | 
| Causality | causally | 
| Gene | PRCD | 
| Mutation | C-T |
