This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID# 956) . This variant has been identified in 0.04% (9/24018) of African chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs121918167). This frequency is consistent with the carrier frequency for Oculo cutaneous albinism type 2. Computational prediction tools and conservation analy sis suggest that this variant may impact the protein. In summary, this variant m eets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for Oculocutaneous albinism type 2 in an autosomal recessive manner based upon multiple occurrences with pathogenic OCA2 variants in individuals with Oculocutaneous albinism and segregation with disease in multiple families. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM3_VeryStrong; PM2; PP 1_Moderate; PP3.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000481371 SCV002131064 pathogenic not provided 2024-12-31 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 743 of the OCA2 protein (p.Pro743Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs121918167, gnomAD 0.04%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with oculocutaneous albinism (PMID: 8302318, 28266639, 31077556). 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: 956). 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) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt OCA2 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with brown oculocutaneous albinism and oculocutaneous, type II albinism (MIM#203200). (I) 0106 - This gene is associated with autosomal recessive disease. (I) 0115 - Variants in this gene causing oculocutaneous albininism are known to have variable expressivity (PMID: 24518832) (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from proline to leucine. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD <0.01 for a recessive condition (v2) (38 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0309 - An alternative amino acid change at the same position has been observed in gnomAD (v2) (1 heterozygote, 0 homozygotes). (I) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in silico tools or highly conserved with a major amino acid change. (SP) 0600 - Variant is located in the annotated citrate transporter domain (Pfam). (I) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has previously been reported in >15 oculocutaneous albinism (OCA) type 2 patients, in both the homozygous and compound heterozygous state (ClinVar; PMIDs: 20426782; 31077556; 24845642; 8302318; 7874125; 12876664; 18463683; 22734612; 24118800; 27734839; 31229681).

Neuberg Centre For Genomic Medicine, NCGM RCV000001007 SCV004101476 pathogenic Tyrosinase-positive oculocutaneous albinism criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The missense variant c.2228C>T(p.Pro743Leu) has been reported in homozygous or compound heterozygous state in >7 individuals with oculocutaneous albinism (OCA) type 2 and segregated with disease in 9 affected relatives from 2 families (Sengupta et al. 2010, Shahzad et al. 2017). This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database with conflicting interpretations of pathogenicity as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic. The p.Pro743Leu variant is novel (not in any individuals) in 1000 Genomes. The amino acid Pro at position 743 is changed to a Leu changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. The variant is predicted to be damaging by both SIFT and PolyPhen2. The residue is conserved across species. The amino acid change p.Pro743Leu in OCA2 is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
