Trait
Polyminimyoclonus
Minipolymyoclonus or polyminimyoclonus is a hyperkinetic movement disorder phenomenology characterized by intermittent, low-amplitude, arrhythmic movements of the hands, commonly of several fingers, with amplitudes just sufficient to produce visible and palpable movements of the joints. It is mostly noticed while the individual is maintaining a posture (commonly outstretched hands) or during action (especially the initial phase of movement).

Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Polyminimyoclonus 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 |
|---|---|---|
| JAG1jagged canonical Notch ligand 1 | 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.
