DeltaGene is a molecular diagnostics lab involved in genetic disease screening and tumour diagnostics. Besides testing for many hereditary or cancer-related mutations (EGFR, RAS etc.), we provide full analysis of the CFTR, BRCA1, and BRCA2 genes.

Cystic fibrosis is one of the more common life-limiting genetic diseases in South Africa. It is caused by the inheritance of at least two mutations of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene and is found in all of South Africa's diverse population groups.

Describes the need for physicians to review the molecular consequences of CFTR protein dysfunction to improve knowledge of CF
