Transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily M, member 7

Scientific background:

Summary: This TRPM7 gene resembles TRPM6 in its ability to channel divalent cations including magnesium, so it might play a role magnesium homeostasis. Genetic variations are associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, too.

Methodology:

 

research
test
Method Genomic sequencing of the entire coding region
Turn-around time 25 working days
Effort 25 working days
Specimen DNA
Quality assessment Internal quality control only
  All known and new missense, nonsense and splice mutations can be detected.
