5 genes linked to Chronic gastritis

Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Chronic gastritis 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
ELF4E74 like ETS transcription factor 4	Always	In 1 condition
FOCADfocadhesin	Sometimes (5–29%)	In 1 condition
IGHG2immunoglobulin heavy constant gamma 2 (G2m marker)	Sometimes (5–29%)	In 1 condition
IGKCimmunoglobulin kappa constant	Sometimes (5–29%)	In 1 condition
IPO8importin 8	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.
