Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Thyroid nodule 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 |
|---|---|---|
| RETret proto-oncogene | Always | In 1 condition |
| AKT1AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| APCAPC regulator of Wnt signaling pathway | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| FLCNfolliculin | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| PRDM10PR/SET domain 10 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| DICER1dicer 1, ribonuclease III | 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.
