Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Abnormality of the rectum 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 |
|---|---|---|
| PIGVphosphatidylinositol glycan anchor biosynthesis class V | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| COX7Bcytochrome c oxidase subunit 7B | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| HCCSholocytochrome c synthase | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| NDUFB11NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase subunit B11 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| ALKALK receptor tyrosine kinase | Rarely (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.
