Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Cupped ribs 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 |
|---|---|---|
| COL11A2collagen type XI alpha 2 chain | Always | In 1 condition |
| TRPV4transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 4 | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| IHHIndian hedgehog signaling molecule | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| PCYT1Aphosphate cytidylyltransferase 1A, choline | Often (30–79%) | In 2 conditions |
| UBA1ubiquitin like modifier activating enzyme 1 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| B3GALT6beta-1,3-galactosyltransferase 6 | Not recorded | In 1 condition |
| GPX4glutathione peroxidase 4 | 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.
