Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Pineal cyst 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 |
|---|---|---|
| MAN2B2mannosidase alpha class 2B member 2 | Always | In 1 condition |
| NONOnon-POU domain containing octamer binding | Always | In 1 condition |
| TM2D3TM2 domain containing 3 | Always | In 1 condition |
| KRASKRas proto-oncogene, GTPase | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| PSMD12proteasome 26S subunit, non-ATPase 12 | Often (30–79%) | In 2 conditions |
| ADNPactivity dependent neuroprotector homeobox | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| GALNT2polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 2 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| WDR26WD repeat domain 26 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 2 conditions |
| BPTFbromodomain PHD finger transcription factor | Rarely (1–4%) | In 1 condition |
| PNPLA2patatin like domain 2, triacylglycerol lipase | Rarely (1–4%) | In 1 condition |
| RNU4-2RNA, U4 small nuclear 2 | Rarely (1–4%) | 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.
