Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Stooped posture 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 |
|---|---|---|
| COL12A1collagen type XII alpha 1 chain | Always | In 1 condition |
| SLC18A2solute carrier family 18 member A2 | Always | In 1 condition |
| SYNJ1synaptojanin 1 | Always | In 1 condition |
| WARS2tryptophanyl tRNA synthetase 2, mitochondrial | Always | In 1 condition |
| ACBD6acyl-CoA binding domain containing 6 | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| ATP13A2ATPase cation transporting 13A2 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| MECP2methyl-CpG binding protein 2 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| POLGDNA polymerase gamma, catalytic subunit | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| RRM1ribonucleotide reductase catalytic subunit M1 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| TK2thymidine kinase 2 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| TMEM106Btransmembrane protein 106B | 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.
