Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Clay colored stools 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.

|---|---|---|
| CYP7B1cytochrome P450 family 7 subfamily B member 1 | Always | In 1 condition |
| BRCA1BRCA1 DNA repair associated | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| BRCA2BRCA2 DNA repair associated | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| PTPN3protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 3 | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| ROS1ROS proto-oncogene 1, receptor tyrosine kinase | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| DCDC2doublecortin domain containing 2 | 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.
