name
descriptionMutations in the ACADVL gene are responsible for very long chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (VLCAD) deficiency. Diagnostic testing is performed for at-risk individuals who have symptoms of VLCAD deficiency. Testing may also be performed for carrier screening of at-risk individuals in cases where there is a family history of VLCAD deficiency, but an affected individual is not available for testing or disease-causing mutations have not been identified. The submitter's lab performs DNA sequencing test for the presence of a mutation(s) in all 20 coding exons of the ACADVL gene. The answer list provide with the term is an example and not an complete representation of mutations that may be found.

componentACADVL gene full mutation analysis
propertyPrid  =  Presence or identity:  Prid stands for “Presence or identity”, is used for assays that detect whether or not an analyte of a particular kind is present, and if it is, to identify the specific analyte.
timePt  =  Point in time:  To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements.
systemBld/Tiss
    Bld  =  Whole blood
    Tiss  =  Tissue, unspecified
scaleNom  =  Nominal:  Nominal or categorical responses that do not have a natural ordering. (e.g., names of bacteria, reported as answers, categories of appearance that do not have a natural ordering, such as, yellow, clear, bloody.
