Genes affected
OCA2 (HGNC:8101): (OCA2 melanosomal transmembrane protein) This gene encodes the human homolog of the mouse p (pink-eyed dilution) gene. The encoded protein is believed to be an integral membrane protein involved in small molecule transport, specifically tyrosine, which is a precursor to melanin synthesis. It is involved in mammalian pigmentation, where it may control skin color variation and act as a determinant of brown or blue eye color. Mutations in this gene result in type 2 oculocutaneous albinism. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2014]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMar 18, 2021In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Observed in apparent homozygous state in multiple unrelated healthy adult individuals tested at GeneDx and in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); Observed with an additional OCA2 variant in patients with hypomorphic albinism in the published literature, but it is not known whether the variants occurred on the same (in cis) or on different (in trans) chromosomes in all cases (also known as p.L650V using alternate nomenclature; Mondal et al., 2012; Norman et al., 2017); Observed in the apparent homozygous state in a patient with features of ocular albinism in the published literature (Mondal et al., 2012); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 23970088, 23010199, 28667292) -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 31, 2024This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 674 of the OCA2 protein (p.Leu674Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs371412500, gnomAD 0.3%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of ocular albinism (PMID: 23010199, 28667292; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is also known as c.1948C>G. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 194918). 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 not expected to disrupt OCA2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testing3billionMay 22, 2022The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.032%). In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product (REVEL: 0.73; 3Cnet: 0.65). Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported to be associated with OCA2 related disorder (ClinVar ID: VCV000194918 / PMID: 23010199). However, the evidence of pathogenicity is insufficient at this time. Therefore, this variant is classified as uncertain significanceaccording to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingDiagnostics Services (NGS), CSIR - Centre For Cellular And Molecular BiologyDec 19, 2019The c.2020C>G variant is not present in publicly available databases like Exome Variant Server (EVS) however present in 1000 Genomes, Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC), Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) and dbSNP at a low minor allele frequency (MAF<0.001) including one homozygote. The variant is present in our in-house exome database in heterozygous state (MAF~0.004). The variant was earlier reported to ClinVar (Accession ID: VCV000194918.1) with conflicting interpretation of pathogenicity (likely pathogenic/uncertain significance). In-silico pathogenicity prediction programs Like SIFT, PolyPhen-2, MutationTaster2, CADD etc. predicted this variant as likely deleterious, however there are no functional studies performed earlier to prove this. Due to lack of enough evidence and also considering the additional phenotypes observed in this patient along with oculocutaneous albinism and nystagmus, the variant as has been classified as uncertain significance as per ACMG guidelines. -
