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 testingGeneDxJan 03, 2024Nucleotide is not conserved across species and the substitution has no predicted effect on splicing; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 28976636, 36553465, 29345414) -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 27, 2024This sequence change affects codon 506 of the SLC45A2 mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the SLC45A2 protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs150473213, gnomAD 0.5%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with ocular albinism (PMID: 29345414). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 436756). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaApr 27, 2017This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
