Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Erysipelas 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 |
|---|---|---|
| MEFVMEFV innate immunity regulator, pyrin | Very often (80–99%) | In 3 conditions |
| TNFRSF1ATNF receptor superfamily member 1A | Very often (80–99%) | In 2 conditions |
| ADAMTS3ADAM metallopeptidase with thrombospondin type 1 motif 3 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| CCBE1collagen and calcium binding EGF domains 1 | Often (30–79%) | In 2 conditions |
| FAT4FAT atypical cadherin 4 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| FAM111BFAM111 trypsin like peptidase B | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| KIF11kinesin family member 11 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| FLT4fms related receptor tyrosine kinase 4 | Rarely (1–4%) | 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.
