2 genes linked to Abnormality of the nasal bone

Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Abnormality of the nasal bone is seen. Most people with this trait have none of those conditions, and a gene on this list says nothing about anyone's own genome.

GeneHow often it is seenConditions
BRAFB-Raf proto-oncogene, serine/threonine kinaseRarely (1–4%)In 1 condition
CTNNB1catenin beta 1Rarely (1–4%)In 1 condition

How often is among people with one of the gene's conditions, the most often across them, as the Human Phenotype Ontology records it. These pages describe traits and the research behind them; they are not a diagnosis, and a doctor or genetic counsellor is the person to ask about symptoms.
