Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000085888 SCV002240381 pathogenic not provided 2024-06-12 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 2 of the TYR gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in TYR are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23504663). This variant is present in population databases (rs61754382, gnomAD 0.005%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with oculocutaneous albinism (PMID: 9259202, 18326704, 27734839, 31077556). This variant is also known as IVS2-1G>A. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 99526). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV000085888 SCV004563951 pathogenic not provided 2023-09-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The TYR c.1037-1G>A variant (rs61754382) is reported in the literature in the compound heterozygous state in several individuals affected with oculocutaneous albinism (Jackson 2020, Spritz 1997). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 99526). This variant is only observed on five alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database (v2.1.1), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant disrupts the canonical splice acceptor site of intron 2, which is likely to negatively impact gene function. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic.

This variant has been reported along with a second TYR variant in individual with oculocutaneous albinism (denoted as IVS2-1G>A, Spritz et al. 1997. PubMed ID: 9259202; Hutton et al. 2008. PubMed ID: 18326704). This variant is reported in 0.0044% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice acceptor site in TYR are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic.
