MECP2 gene deletion+duplication and full mutation analysis in Blood or Tissue by Molecular genetics method   94229-2

LOINC Code


LOINC code94229-2
nameMECP2 gene deletion+duplication and full mutation analysis in Blood or Tissue by Molecular genetics method
descriptionFull sequence analysis is performed to test for the presence of a mutation in all coding regions and intron/exon boundaries of the MECP2 gene. Deletion/duplication analysis, such as by multiplex ligation probe amplification (MLPA), is also performed. This test is used for diagnosing Rett syndrome or other methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MeCP2)-related disorders.[GHR gene: MECP2]
