Frequently Asked Questions

What is 3MC syndrome type 2?
3MC syndrome type 2 is a rare genetic disorder caused by mutations in the COLEC11 gene, characterized by facial dysmorphism, intellectual disability, and various physical abnormalities.
What causes 3MC syndrome type 2?
It is caused by pathogenic mutations in the COLEC11 gene, which is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern.
What are the common symptoms of 3MC syndrome type 2?
Symptoms include facial dysmorphism, intellectual disability, genital and limb abnormalities, speech delays, hearing loss, vision problems, and delayed motor skills.
How is 3MC syndrome type 2 diagnosed?
Diagnosis is confirmed through genetic testing, such as the COLEC11 Gene NGS Genetic Test, which detects mutations in the gene.
What is the COLEC11 gene?
The COLEC11 gene encodes a protein involved in immune function and development; mutations in this gene are linked to 3MC syndrome type 2.
What does the NGS genetic test involve?
The test uses Next Generation Sequencing to analyze the COLEC11 gene for mutations from a blood or DNA sample.
How much does the COLEC11 Gene 3MC Syndrome Type 2 NGS Genetic Test cost?
The test costs INR 20000 at DNA Labs India, with home sample collection available.
Is home sample collection available for this test?
Yes, DNA Labs India offers free home sample collection across many cities in India for this test.
How long does it take to get results?
