Genes affected
OCA2 (HGNC:8101): (OCA2 melanosomal transmembrane protein) This gene encodes the human homolog of the mouse p (pink-eyed dilution) gene. The encoded protein is believed to be an integral membrane protein involved in small molecule transport, specifically tyrosine, which is a precursor to melanin synthesis. It is involved in mammalian pigmentation, where it may control skin color variation and act as a determinant of brown or blue eye color. Mutations in this gene result in type 2 oculocutaneous albinism. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2014]

This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 489 of the OCA2 protein (p.Asn489Asp). This variant is present in population databases (rs121918170, gnomAD 0.07%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with oculocutaneous albinism (PMID: 12876664, 18463683, 29345414). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 961). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt OCA2 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on OCA2 function (PMID: 25513726). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The TCN2 c.497_498delTC (p.Leu166ProfsTer7) variant results in a frameshift, and is predicted to result in premature termination of the protein. The p.Leu166ProfsTer7 variant has been reported in two studies and is found in a total of four unrelated probands with transcobalamin II deficiency including three in a homozygous state and one in a compound heterozygous state (Schiff et al. 2010; Trakadis et al. 2014). Control data are unavailable for this variant, which is reported at a frequency of 0.00048 in the African population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium. Based on the evidence and the potential impact of frameshift variants, the p.Leu166ProfsTer7 variant is classified as pathogenic for transcobalamin II deficiency. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -

Variant summary: OCA2 c.1465A>G (p.Asn489Asp) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Citrate transporter-like domain (IPR004680) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00035 in 251496 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in OCA2 causing Oculocutaneous Albinism (0.00035 vs 0.0043), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1465A>G has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Oculocutaneous Albinism (example: Lasseaux_2018). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 29345414). Eleven submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

The OCA2 c.1465A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Asn489Asp. This variant has been reported to be causative for autosomal recessive oculocutaneous albinism (Spritz et al. 1997. PubMed ID: 9259203; King et al. 2003. PubMed ID: 13680365; King et al. 2003. PubMed ID: 12876664; Hutton and Spritz. 2008. PubMed ID: 18326704). This variant is reported in 0.067% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. This variant has been reported to be one of three recurrent pathogenic variants in the OCA2 gene and accounts for one of the alleles in ~7% of OCAII cases (Hutton and Spritz. 2008. PubMed ID: 18463683). Given the evidence, we interpret this variant as pathogenic. -
