Genes affected
TYR (HGNC:12442): (tyrosinase) The enzyme encoded by this gene catalyzes the first 2 steps, and at least 1 subsequent step, in the conversion of tyrosine to melanin. The enzyme has both tyrosine hydroxylase and dopa oxidase catalytic activities, and requires copper for function. Mutations in this gene result in oculocutaneous albinism, and nonpathologic polymorphisms result in skin pigmentation variation. The human genome contains a pseudogene similar to the 3' half of this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

The start lost c.1A>G p.Met1? variant in TYR gene has been reported previously in individuals affected in both homozygous and compound heterozygous state with oculocutaneous albinism type A Baban et al. 2018; Zhong et al. 2019. The p.Met1? variant is reported with an allele frequency of 0.006% in the gnomAD exomes database and is novel not in any individuals in 1000 Genomes database. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Likely Pathogenic / Pathogenic multiple submissions. The amino acid change p.Met1? in TYR is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 31. The p.Met1? variant is predicted to disrupt the initiation codon, and thus potentially may interfere with protein expression. Loss of function variants have been previously reported to be disease causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The initiator codon variant p.M1V in TYR (NM_000372.5) has been previously reported in individuals affected with Ocular albinism ( Fukaiet al, 1995). The p.M1V variant is observed in 15/1,13,732 (0.0132%) alleles from individuals of European (Non-Finnish) background in gnomAD Exomes and is novel (not in any individuals) in 1000 Genomes. The p.M1V variant is a loss of function variant in the gene TYR, which is intolerant of Loss of Function variants. The variant is predicted to be damaging by both SIFT and PolyPhen2. The residue is conserved across species. The nucleotide change in TYR is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic -

The TYR c.1A>G variant is predicted to disrupt the translation initiation site (Start loss). This variant has been reported in the compound heterozygous state in individuals with oculocutaneous albinism (Fukai et al. 1995. PubMed ID: 7704033; Breimer et al. 1994. PubMed ID: 7955413; Marti et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 28976636). This variant is reported in 0.012% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) 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/3807/). Given all the evidence, we interpret this variant as pathogenic. -
