NM_000372.5:c.1265G>A
Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 13 ACMG points: 13P and 0B. PM2PM5PP3PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000372.5(TYR):c.1265G>A(p.Arg422Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000366 in 1,611,886 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R422W) has been classified as Pathogenic.

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 422 of the TYR protein (p.Arg422Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs61754393, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with ocular albinism (PMID: 1900309, 31077556). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 3782). 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 not expected to disrupt TYR protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects TYR function (PMID: 1900309). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect with decreased tyrosine hydroxylase, dopa oxidase, DHI oxidase, copper-binding and/or catalytic activities (PMID: 1900309, 9242509, 1429711); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 1900309, 32552135, 10987646, 1900307, 1429711, 11284711, 9242509, 24392141, 27775880, 1943686, 18326704, 29437493, 31077556, 15146472, 2567165, 38145795, 36729443, 37605172, 34838614, 38542347) -

The TYR c.1265G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg422Gln. This variant has been reported in the compound heterozygous states in multiple individuals with oculocutaneous albinism (see for examples: Giebel et al. 1991. PubMed ID: 1900309; Zhong et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31077556; Chuan et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 32552135). An alternate substitution of this amino acid (p.Arg422Trp) has also been reported in individuals with oculocutaneous albinism (King et al 2003. PubMed ID: 13680365). Functional studies have shown that the p.Arg422Gln substitution affects protein function (Toyofuku et al. 2001. PubMed ID: 11284711; Dolinska. 2014. PubMed ID: 24392141). This variant is reported in 0.022% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD. This variant has been classified as pathogenic by multiple independent submitters to the ClinVar database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/3782/). Given the evidence, we interpret this variant as pathogenic. -
