94199-7
LaboratoryFGA gene full mutation analysis in Blood or Tissue by Sequencing
Definition
Full gene sequence analysis is performed to test for the presence of a mutation in the coding regions and intron/exon boundaries of the fibrinogen alpha chain (FGA) gene. Mutations in the FGA gene are associated with congenital afibrinogenemia (also hypofibrinogenemia, dysfibrinogenemia, or hypodysfibrinogenemia) and familial renal amyloidosis.[GHR gene: FGA]
