PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV003396593 SCV004112273 pathogenic OCA2-related condition 2023-09-08 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The OCA2 c.2051_2052delinsG variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Phe684Cysfs*8). This variant has been reported in an individual with oculocutaneous albinism (described as c.2051T>G and c.2055delT together as a complex allele in Table 1, Simeonov et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23504663). This variant has not been reported in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. Frameshift variants in OCA2 are expected to be pathogenic. Given the evidence, we interpret this variant as pathogenic.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV003492198 SCV004240916 pathogenic Oculocutaneous albinism 2023-12-12 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: OCA2 c.2051_2052delinsG (p.Phe684CysfsX8) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant was absent in 251236 control chromosomes. c.2051_2052delinsG has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Oculocutaneous Albinism (Simeonov_2013). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Two submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
Invitae RCV001008759 SCV004672437 pathogenic not provided 2020-12-03 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with oculocutaneous albinism (PMID: 23504663). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 430966). This variant is present in population databases (rs772595552, ExAC 0.005%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Phe684Cysfs*8) in the OCA2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in OCA2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19865097, 21541274).
