8 genes linked to Pancreatic calcification

Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Pancreatic calcification 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.

GeneHow often it is seenConditions
SPINK1serine peptidase inhibitor Kazal type 1AlwaysIn 3 conditions
CTRCchymotrypsin CVery often (80–99%)In 3 conditions
CASRcalcium sensing receptorSometimes (5–29%)In 1 condition
CPA1carboxypeptidase A1Sometimes (5–29%)In 1 condition
PRSS1serine protease 1Sometimes (5–29%)In 2 conditions
PRSS2serine protease 2Sometimes (5–29%)In 2 conditions
TRPV6transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 6Sometimes (5–29%)In 1 condition
CFTRCF transmembrane conductance regulatorNot recordedIn 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.
