Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Abnormal shape of platelets 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.
| Gene | How often it is seen | Conditions |
|---|---|---|
| CALRcalreticulin | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| JAK2Janus kinase 2 | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| MPLMPL proto-oncogene, thrombopoietin receptor | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| SH2B3SH2B adaptor protein 3 | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| TET2tet methylcytosine dioxygenase 2 | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| TP53tumor protein p53 | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| WASWASP actin nucleation promoting factor | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| SC5Dsterol-C5-desaturase | Often (30–79%) | 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.
