Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 15 ACMG points: 15P and 0B. PM1PP2PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000372.5(TYR):c.980A>G(p.Tyr327Cys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000496 in 1,613,660 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 Likely pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. Y327Y) has been classified as Likely benign.

Oculocutaneous albinism type 1A Pathogenic:2
This heterozygous missense variant in the TYR gene was identified in a very young patient with oculocutaneous albinism (type 1A) in combination with another variant (deletion ) in the same gene (compound heterozygosity). This variant was inherited form the mother (asymptomatic), while the second variant was inherited from the father (asymptomatic). -

not provided Pathogenic:1
This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 327 of the TYR protein (p.Tyr327Cys). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of oculocutaneous albinism (PMID: 13680365; Invitae; http://www.didac.ehu.es/antropo/7/7-6/Aquaron.htm). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 585280). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt TYR protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects TYR function (PMID: 27537549). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
TYR-related disorder Pathogenic:1
The TYR c.980A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Tyr327Cys. This variant has been reported in individuals with oculocutaneous albinism (King et al. 2003. PubMed ID: 13680365; Loftus et al. 2023. PubMed ID: 37327787). Additionally, this variant has been detected along with a pathogenic TYR variant in multiple individuals undergoing testing for oculocutaneous albinism (PreventionGenetics, internal data). The p.Tyr327Cys substitution is predicted damaging to the protein and functional studies have confirmed it causes a complete ablation of enzyme activity (Mondal et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27537549). This variant is reported in 0.023% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -
