Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Receptive language delay 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 |
|---|---|---|
| AGO2argonaute RISC catalytic component 2 | Always | In 1 condition |
| ATP9AATPase phospholipid transporting 9A | Always | In 1 condition |
| CNTNAP2contactin associated protein 2 | Always | In 2 conditions |
| KICS2KICSTOR subunit 2 | Always | In 1 condition |
| MSL2MSL complex subunit 2 | Always | In 1 condition |
| PAK1p21 (RAC1) activated kinase 1 | Always | In 1 condition |
| ALMS1ALMS1 centrosome and basal body associated protein | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| FOXP2forkhead box P2 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| GRHL3grainyhead like transcription factor 3 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| UBBubiquitin B | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| FLCNfolliculin | Not recorded | In 1 condition |
| RAI1retinoic acid induced 1 | 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.
