About Gaucher Disease Carrier Test | Ashkenazi in Ceres
This test looks for carrier status of Gaucher disease in people of Ashkenazi Jewish descent.
Gaucher disease is an autosomal recessive disorder, meaning a person must inherit a genetic change from both parents to develop the condition. Carriers have one changed copy of the relevant gene and typically do not have symptoms, but they can pass the change to their children.
The condition is caused by variants in the GBA gene, which provides instructions for an enzyme that breaks down a fatty substance called glucocerebroside. When this enzyme is deficient, fatty materials accumulate in certain organs and tissues, leading to symptoms that can vary widely in type and severity.
Ashkenazi Jewish individuals have a higher carrier frequency for several recessive conditions, including Gaucher disease, compared with the general population. Carrier testing is therefore often offered to this group so that people can learn about their reproductive risk and make informed decisions.
