Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Upgaze palsy 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 |
|---|---|---|
| MUSKmuscle associated receptor tyrosine kinase | Always | In 1 condition |
| NEK9NIMA related kinase 9 | Always | In 1 condition |
| NKX6-2NK6 homeobox 2 | Always | In 1 condition |
| RAB3ARAB3A, member RAS oncogene family | Always | In 1 condition |
| ACBD6acyl-CoA binding domain containing 6 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| ATP13A2ATPase cation transporting 13A2 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| ATXN1ataxin 1 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| DLATdihydrolipoamide S-acetyltransferase | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| POLGDNA polymerase gamma, catalytic subunit | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| TWNKtwinkle mtDNA helicase | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| AASSaminoadipate-semialdehyde synthase | 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.
