Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Long upper lip 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 |
|---|---|---|
| TRPS1transcriptional repressor GATA binding 1 | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| B3GALT6beta-1,3-galactosyltransferase 6 | Often (30–79%) | In 2 conditions |
| TBL1XR1TBL1X/Y related 1 | Often (30–79%) | In 2 conditions |
| AFF2ALF transcription elongation factor 2 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| RECQL4RecQ like helicase 4 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| SLC35C1solute carrier family 35 member C1 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| ARXaristaless related homeobox | Not recorded | In 1 condition |
| DIS3L2DIS3 like 3'-5' exoribonuclease 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.
