Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Corneal scarring 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 |
|---|---|---|
| DSTdystonin | Always | In 2 conditions |
| ERCC4ERCC excision repair 4, endonuclease catalytic subunit | Always | In 1 condition |
| TGFBItransforming growth factor beta induced | Very often (80–99%) | In 2 conditions |
| COL17A1collagen type XVII alpha 1 chain | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| MPV17mitochondrial inner membrane protein MPV17 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| NCAPG2non-SMC condensin II complex subunit G2 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| POLA1DNA polymerase alpha 1, catalytic subunit | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| PRDM12PR/SET domain 12 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| SIX6SIX homeobox 6 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| CREBBPCREB binding lysine acetyltransferase | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| EP300EP300 lysine acetyltransferase | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| NGLY1N-glycanase 1 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| PRDM5PR/SET domain 5 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| ZNF469zinc finger protein 469 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| NTRK1neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase 1 | Rarely (1–4%) | In 2 conditions |
| COL7A1collagen type VII alpha 1 chain | Not recorded | In 1 condition |
| GJB2gap junction protein beta 2 | Not recorded | In 1 condition |
| OCRLOCRL inositol polyphosphate-5-phosphatase | Not recorded | In 1 condition |
| UROSuroporphyrinogen III synthase | Not recorded | 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.
