Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Long rib cage 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 |
|---|---|---|
| KAT6Alysine acetyltransferase 6A | Always | In 1 condition |
| TRPV4transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 4 | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| PRKACAprotein kinase cAMP-activated catalytic subunit alpha | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| PRKACBprotein kinase cAMP-activated catalytic subunit beta | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| BCORBCL6 corepressor | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| NAA10N-alpha-acetyltransferase 10, NatA catalytic subunit | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| INTUinturned planar cell polarity protein | Not recorded | In 1 condition |
| PCGF2polycomb group ring finger 2 | 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.
