Understanding Your Results

Results indicate presence or absence of mutations in the TSFM gene associated with COXPD3.
Positive: Pathogenic variant detected, confirming diagnosis
Negative: No pathogenic variants, but clinical correlation needed
VUS: Variant of uncertain significance, require follow-up
⚠️ When to Consult a Doctor:

If experiencing symptoms such as developmental delays, muscle weakness, or seizures, or if family history of mitochondrial disorders.

Limitations

  • May not detect all types of mutations
  • Variant of uncertain significance (VUS) may require further testing
  • Does not assess mitochondrial DNA

Risks & Considerations

  • Minor bruising from blood draw
  • Rare infection risk

Interfering Factors

  • Sample hemolysis
  • DNA degradation
  • Contamination

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the TSFM Gene Combined Oxidative Phosphorylation Deficiency Type 3 NGS Genetic Test?
It is a next-generation sequencing test that analyzes the TSFM gene for mutations causing COXPD3, a mitochondrial disorder.
Why is this test recommended?
Recommended for individuals with symptoms of mitochondrial disorders or a family history of COXPD3 to confirm diagnosis.
How is the test performed?
A blood sample or DNA is collected and sequenced using NGS to detect variants in the TSFM gene.
What is the cost of the test?
The test costs INR 20000 at DNA Labs India, with free home sample collection.
Is home sample collection available?
Yes, free home sample collection is available across India for online bookings.
How long does it take to receive results?
Results are typically available within 3 to 4 weeks.
What do positive results indicate?
Positive results confirm the presence of pathogenic mutations in the TSFM gene, aiding in diagnosis and management.
Can the test detect all mutations?
While highly sensitive, it may not detect all mutation types, but covers common and rare variants in the TSFM gene.
Is genetic counseling necessary before testing?
Yes, genetic counseling is recommended to understand the implications, family history, and next steps.
What is a Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS)?
A VUS is a genetic variant with unclear clinical significance, requiring further evaluation or follow-up testing.
How accurate is the test?
The test has high accuracy due to advanced NGS technology, but clinical correlation is essential for final diagnosis.
What should I do after receiving results?
Consult with a healthcare professional or geneticist for interpretation, treatment options, and genetic counseling.
