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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeFeb 05, 2022This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 511 of the SLC45A2 protein (p.Ala511Val). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of oculocutaneous albinism (PMID: 30868578). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 617813). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant disrupts the p.Ala511 amino acid residue in SLC45A2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with SLC45A2-related conditions (PMID: 18821858), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJan 12, 2021This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 31589614, 23190901, 32221475, 31229681, 30868578, 28266639) -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGenetic Services Laboratory, University of ChicagoJun 12, 2020The sequence change, c.1532C>T, in exon 7 results in an amino acid change, p.Ala511Val. The p.Ala511Val change affects a highly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the SLC45A2 protein that is known to be functional. The p.Ala511Val substitution appears to be deleterious using several in-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Mutation Taster, REVEL). This particular amino acid change has been described in Pakistani consanguineous families with oculocutaneous albinism in the homozygous state (PMIDs: 28266639, 30868578). This sequence change has been described in the gnomAD database in three heterozygous individuals which corresponds to a population frequency of 0.0011% (dbSNP rs748872789); however, it has not been observed in homozygous state in any individuals. These collective evidences indicate that this sequence change is likely pathogenic, however functional studies have not been performed to prove this conclusively. -
