Get my Genome Test1 gene linked to Short, cube shaped long bone of hand
Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Short, cube shaped long bone of hand 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 |
|---|---|---|
| GDF5growth differentiation factor 5 | Often (30–79%) | In 2 conditions |
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.
