Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Peripheral axonal degeneration 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 |
|---|---|---|
| ABCD1ATP binding cassette subfamily D member 1 | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| GDAP1ganglioside induced differentiation associated protein 1 | Very often (80–99%) | In 3 conditions |
| TTC19tetratricopeptide repeat domain 19 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| APTXaprataxin | Not recorded | In 1 condition |
| CTDP1CTD phosphatase 1 | Not recorded | In 1 condition |
| DNM2dynamin 2 | Not recorded | In 1 condition |
| GJB1gap junction protein beta 1 | Not recorded | In 1 condition |
| IGHMBP2immunoglobulin mu DNA binding protein 2 | Not recorded | In 1 condition |
| LRSAM1leucine rich repeat and sterile alpha motif containing 1 | Not recorded | In 1 condition |
| SEPTIN9septin 9 | Not recorded | In 1 condition |
| SETXsenataxin | Not recorded | In 1 condition |
| SH3TC2SH3 domain and tetratricopeptide repeats 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.
