Sequence analysis
MORM syndrome is a genetic disorder obtained through inheritance. The main method for testing individuals showing symptoms of MORM syndrome is sequence analysis of the entire coding region. When performing a sequence analysis of the entire coding region the gene INPP5E is targeted. Sequence analysis is the biotechnological process in which the structure and sequence of DNA, RNA, or protein sequence is determined through the use of technology. This sequence can be analyzed to determine mutations or abnormalities in that particular region. When testing for MORM syndrome, sequence analysis of the region of the genome which contains the gene INPP5E is targeted and examined to look for mutations.
