Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Abnormal shape of sperm 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 |
|---|---|---|
| CDC14Acell division cycle 14A | Always | In 1 condition |
| PPP2R3Cprotein phosphatase 2 regulatory subunit B''gamma | Always | In 1 condition |
| SEPTIN12septin 12 | Always | In 1 condition |
| FSHBfollicle stimulating hormone subunit beta | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| KLHL10kelch like family member 10 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| GBA2glucosylceramidase beta 2 | Sometimes (5–29%) | 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.
