Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Exophoria 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 |
|---|---|---|
| RAB3ARAB3A, member RAS oncogene family | Always | In 1 condition |
| HACE1HECT domain and ankyrin repeat containing E3 ubiquitin protein ligase 1 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| RNH1ribonuclease/angiogenin inhibitor 1 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| AFF4ALF transcription elongation factor 4 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| PORCNporcupine O-acyltransferase | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| TRAPPC11trafficking protein particle complex subunit 11 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| GJA5gap junction protein alpha 5 | Rarely (1–4%) | In 1 condition |
| GJA8gap junction protein alpha 8 | 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.
