This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 217 of the TYR protein (p.Arg217Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs61754365, gnomAD 0.06%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with oculocutaneous albinism (PMID: 10987646, 28976636, 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: 99575). 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) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on TYR protein function. This variant disrupts the p.Arg217 amino acid residue in TYR. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 1642278, 10987646, 27734839, 28266639). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Oculocutaneous albinism type 1A Pathogenic:4
The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.039%). Predicted Consequence/Location: Missense variant In silico tool predictions suggest the damaging effect of the variant on the gene or gene product (REVEL: 0.55; 3Cnet: 0.90). The same nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid change (ClinVar ID: VCV000099575 /PMID: 8477259) and different missense changes at the same codon (p.Arg217Gly, p.Arg217Pro, p.Arg217Ser, p.Arg217Trp / ClinVar ID: VCV000003795, VCV000099573 /PMID: 15146472, 1642278, 34838614, 9259202) have been previously reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence.The variant has been reported to be in trans with a pathogenic variant as either compound heterozygous or homozygous in at least 2 similarly affected unrelated individuals (PMID: 18463683, 27734839). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

Oculocutaneous albinism Pathogenic:2
The TYR c.650G>A (p.Arg217Gln) missense variant has been reported in at least three studies and is found in a compound heterozygous state in at least five individuals with oculocutaneous albinism, with at least one individual carrying a pathogenic variant in trans (Wang et al. 2005; Hutton and Spritz 2008; Grønskov et al. 2009). The variant was not found in 50 healthy unrelated control individuals (Grønskov et al. 2009) and is reported at a frequency of 0.00048 in the European (non-Finnish) population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium. Two additional variants in the Arg217 residue (p.Arg217Trp and p.Arg217Gly) have been reported in individuals with oculocutaneous albinism in a compound heterozygous state (Hutton and Spritz 2008). Based on the evidence, the p.Arg217Gln variant is classified as likely pathogenic for oculocutaneous albinism. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -
Variant summary: TYR c.650G>A (p.Arg217Gln) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00026 in 250834 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in TYR causing Oculocutaneous Albinism (0.00026 vs 0.0056), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.650G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Oculocutaneous Albinism (King_2003, Oetting_2009). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 13680365, 19208379). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 99575). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
