Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Juvenile cataract 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 |
|---|---|---|
| ANAPC1anaphase promoting complex subunit 1 | Always | In 2 conditions |
| LEMD2LEM domain nuclear envelope protein 2 | Always | In 1 condition |
| CYP27A1cytochrome P450 family 27 subfamily A member 1 | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| RDH11retinol dehydrogenase 11 | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| FAR1fatty acyl-CoA reductase 1 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| MECP2methyl-CpG binding protein 2 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| NACC1nucleus accumbens associated 1 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| ADNPactivity dependent neuroprotector homeobox | Rarely (1–4%) | In 1 condition |
| RECQL4RecQ like helicase 4 | Rarely (1–4%) | In 1 condition |
| SPTBN1spectrin beta, non-erythrocytic 1 | Rarely (1–4%) | In 1 condition |
| TGM3transglutaminase 3 | 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.
