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]

Submissions by phenotype

not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 22, 2022This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 519 of the OCA2 protein (p.Val519Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs41446944, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with oculocutaneous albinism (PMID: 15712365, 19060277). 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. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
