DNA Methylation Pathway Profile, Buccal Swab - Mosaic Diagnostics Test Kit

Notice: This test kit is not available for purchase by residents of New York due to state restrictions. We apologize for any inconvenience.

What is the purpose of this test?

The DNA Methylation Pathway Profile, Buccal Swab - Mosaic Diagnostics Test Kit identifies genetic variations known as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that can influence critical biochemical pathways in the body. These pathways include methionine metabolism, detoxification, hormone balance, and Vitamin D function, all of which are vital for maintaining optimal health and reducing the risk of disease. By understanding how these SNPs affect these processes, clinicians can better address imbalances and offer targeted health solutions.

This test provides personalized insights into your genetic makeup, helping healthcare providers recommend specific lifestyle changes and dietary supplements. These recommendations can improve biochemical functions, reduce disease risk, and support overall wellness by tailoring care to your unique genetic profile.

The DNA Methylation Pathway Profile, Buccal Swab - Mosaic Diagnostics Test Kit includes:

The test analyzes 30 SNPs that may influence health and disease risk:

• ACAT – 1-02: Plays a role in fat metabolism and energy production, helping maintain cellular health.
• AHCY – 19, AHCY – 1, AHCY – 2: Involved in methionine metabolism, affecting detoxification and neurotransmitter production.
• BHMT – 1, BHMT – 2, BHMT – 4, BHMT – 8: Supports homocysteine processing, which is essential for cardiovascular health.
• CBS – A360A, CBS – C699T, CBS – N212N: Influences sulfur metabolism and detoxification pathways.
• COMT – 61, COMT – H62H, COMT – V158M: Regulates the breakdown of dopamine, epinephrine, and norepinephrine, affecting mood and stress responses.
• MAO A – R297R: Plays a role in neurotransmitter breakdown, impacting emotional and mental health.
• MTHFR – 3, MTHFR – A1298C, MTHFR – C677T: Key to folate metabolism, which supports DNA synthesis, repair, and cardiovascular health.
• MTR – A2756G: Helps convert homocysteine to methionine, supporting cardiovascular and neurological health.
• MTRR – A66G, MTRR – 11, MTRR – H595Y, MTRR – K350A, MTRR – R415T, MTRR – S257T: Supports vitamin B12 metabolism, crucial for energy production and nerve function.
• NOS – D298E: Regulates nitric oxide production, which is essential for vascular and immune health.
• SHMT – C1420T: Affects amino acid metabolism, supporting DNA synthesis and repair.
• SUOX – S370S: Helps detoxify harmful sulfur compounds, supporting liver function.
• VDR – Fok1, VDR – Taq1: Involved in Vitamin D metabolism, essential for bone health and immune regulation.
