What does this test Iron Sulfur (Fe-S) Cluster Biogenesis Gene Panel identify?

Iron Sulfur (Fe-S) Cluster Biogenesis Gene Panel

This test identifies mutations or variations in genes involved in the biogenesis of iron-sulfur (Fe-S) clusters. Fe-S clusters are essential cofactors found in a variety of proteins involved in various cellular processes including respiration, DNA repair, and gene regulation.

The panel includes genes such as NFS1, ISCU, FXN, and others that are known to be involved in the assembly and transfer of Fe-S clusters. Mutations in these genes can lead to disorders such as mitochondrial diseases, neurodegenerative disorders, and metabolic disorders.

By analyzing these genes, this panel can help in diagnosing Fe-S cluster biogenesis disorders and guiding treatment decisions for affected individuals.

Why is this test Iron Sulfur (Fe-S) Cluster Biogenesis Gene Panel taken?

This test for Iron Sulfur (Fe-S) Cluster Biogenesis Gene Panel is taken to identify any genetic mutations or abnormalities in the genes responsible for the formation of Fe-S clusters. Fe-S clusters are essential co-factors in a wide range of cellular processes, including metabolism, DNA repair, and gene expression regulation.

Defects in Fe-S cluster biogenesis genes can lead to a variety of disorders, such as mitochondrial dysfunction, neurodegenerative diseases, and anemia. By analyzing the genes involved in Fe-S cluster biogenesis, this test can help diagnose and manage these conditions.
