Etiology It is caused by mutation in a gene encoding the alpha and beta subunit precursor gene of GLcNAc-phos- photransferase. This gene is located on 12q23.2. [passeidireto.com]

They are organised into groups, and further divided into clinical, etiological or histopathological sub-types. [orpha.net]

The etiology of the disease remains unknown, but it is likely multifactorial. However, the genetic basis for this condition is defined by multiple genes that have only modest effect on disease susceptibility. [ped-rheum.biomedcentral.com]
