Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Mottled skin coloring 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 |
|---|---|---|
| LTV1LTV1 ribosome biogenesis factor | Always | In 1 condition |
| ZMPSTE24zinc metallopeptidase STE24 | Always | In 1 condition |
| HPGD15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| KRT14keratin 14 | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| KRT5keratin 5 | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| DUOX2dual oxidase 2 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| LMNAlamin A/C | Not recorded | In 1 condition |
| RECQL4RecQ like helicase 4 | 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.
