Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Macular exudate 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 |
|---|---|---|
| CTNNB1catenin beta 1 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| FZD4frizzled class receptor 4 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| LRP5LDL receptor related protein 5 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| NDPnorrin cystine knot growth factor NDP | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| TSPAN12tetraspanin 12 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| ZNF408zinc finger protein 408 | Sometimes (5–29%) | 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.
