Useful For

Follow up for abnormal biochemical results suggestive of a ketone disorder

 

Establishing a molecular diagnosis for patients with ketone disorders

 

Identifying variants within genes known to be associated with ketone disorders, allowing for predictive testing of at-risk family members

Genetics Test Information

This test utilizes next-generation sequencing to detect single nucleotide and copy number variants in 9 genes associated with ketone disorders: ACAA2, ACAT1, ACAT2, AKT2, BDH1, HMGCL, HMGCS2, OXCT1, SLC16A1. See Targeted Genes and Methodology Details for Ketone Disorders Gene Panel in Special Instructions and Method Description for additional details.

 

Identification of a pathogenic variant may assist with diagnosis, prognosis, clinical management, familial screening, and genetic counseling for ketone disorders.

 

Additional first tier testing may be considered/recommended.  For more information see Advisory Information.
