NOTE. The genes are divided into 3 categories. The first group shows genes identified by linkage studies, direct examination of the gene in patients with BA, or reports of patients with a known mutation also with BA. The second group has genes responsible for diseases with a hepatic or biliary phenotype, and the third group has genes that lead to hepatobiliary defects in animal models.
