Do you test genes for conditions such as cystic fibrosis, Huntington’s disease, or breast cancer linked to BRCA1 and 2?
No, Navigenics does not perform gene sequencing for diseases caused by single genes, such as Huntington’s disease or cystic fibrosis. Navigenics reports on the common genetic variations that contribute to multifactorial disease, meaning that the genetic variation is seen in approximately >1% of the population.
