Trait
EMG: axonal abnormality
Electromyographic (EMG) findings characteristic of axonal neuropathy, with normal or slightly decreased nerve conduction velocities, normal or slightly prolonged distal latencies, but significantly reduced motor potentials and sensory amplitudes. There may be spontaneous activity upon needle EMG studies, such as increased insertional activity, positive sharp waves, and fibrillation potentials.

Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which EMG: axonal abnormality 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 |
|---|---|---|
| ATP13A2ATPase cation transporting 13A2 | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| LMNAlamin A/C | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| PDK3pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 3 | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| ANO5anoctamin 5 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| SPG11SPG11 vesicle trafficking associated, spatacsin | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| CYP27A1cytochrome P450 family 27 subfamily A member 1 | 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.
