LOINC display name : MLYCD gene del dup and full mutation analysis Molgen Doc (Bld/Tiss);
LOINC long common name : MLYCD gene deletion duplication and full mutation analysis in Blood or Tissue by Molecular
genetics method;
LOINC short name : MLYCD Del Dup Full Mut Anl Bld/T;
LOINC description : Full gene sequence analysis of all coding regions and intron/exon boundaries of the
MLYCD gene. Deletion/duplication analysis, such as by multiplex ligation probe amplification
(MLPA), is also performed. Alterations in the MLYCD gene cause malonyl-coenzyme A
decarboxylase (MCD) deficiency, a rare autosomal recessive inborn error of fatty acid
metabolism.[GHR gene: MLYCD];
