Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -3 ACMG points: 2P and 5B. PM2 BP4_Moderate BP6_Moderate BP7

The NM_016180.5(SLC45A2):​c.1566C>G​(p.Val522Val) variant causes a synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. V522V) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected

SLC45A2 (HGNC:16472): (solute carrier family 45 member 2) This gene encodes a transporter protein that mediates melanin synthesis. The protein is expressed in a high percentage of melanoma cell lines. Mutations in this gene are a cause of oculocutaneous albinism type 4, and polymorphisms in this gene are associated with variations in skin and hair color. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]
