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]

Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect with dopa oxidase activity, melanin production, and DHI oxidase activities significantly decreased when compared to controls (Tripathi et al., 1992; Kono et al., 2012); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 8996965, 19208379, 11295837, 19060277, 22042571, 31429209, 21985232, 1429711, 2342539, 28266639, 25326635, 19865097, 18326704, 34838614)

This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 383 of the TYR protein (p.Asp383Asn). This variant is present in population databases (rs121908011, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with oculocutaneous albinism (PMID: 2342539). 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. This variant is also known as p.Asp365Asn. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 3775). 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 expected to disrupt TYR protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

The observed variant NM_000372.4 :c.1147G>A (p.Asp383Asn) is a missense variation found in exon 3 of the TYR gene. It is a known pathogenic variant and has been reported in the ExAC and gnomAD database with an allele frequency of 0.000165 and 0.00009358, respectively. The in silico prediction of this variant is disease causing by SIFT, PolyPhen2. The proband's parents are heterozygous carriers of the following mutations in the TYR gene: c.1147G>A (p.Asp383Asn) in exon 3 and c.1217C>T (p.pro406leu) in exon 4. As the parents are phenotypically normal, it is likely that these mutations are in a cis arrangement. The proband thus has both of the parent's mutations in trans with a third variant c.1110G>A, which is de novo. In summary, the variant meets the ACMG criteria to be classified as pathogenic based upon the evidence stated above.

Variant summary: TYR c.1147G>A (p.Asp383Asn) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Tyrosinase copper-binding domain (IPR002227) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 9.2e-05 in 251022 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in TYR causing Oculocutaneous Albinism (9.2e-05 vs 0.0056), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1147G>A has been reported in the literature as biallelic homozygous or compound heterozygous genotypes in multiple individuals affected with Oculocutaneous Albinism (example, Lasseaux_2018, King_2003). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Nine clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

The TYR c.1147G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Asp383Asn. This variant has been reported in individuals with oculocutaneous albinism (Hutton and Spritz. 2008. PubMed ID: 18463683; Opitz et al. 2004. PubMed ID: 15146472; Kono et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 21985232). This variant is reported in 0.018% 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/3775/). Given the evidence, we interpret this variant as pathogenic.
