All nine exons of the OA1 gene, as well as the 5' and 3' untranslated regions, were scanned for point mutations in PCR-amplified DNA from 60 OA1 patients. The mutations identified include: two frameshifts
Case#: Schiaffino_1995_Family_2948_Patient_BA442, male, age not reported, family origin reported as British in two previous publications
CasePresentingHPOs: N/A
CaseHPOFreeText: The proband has been diagnosed with ocular albinism 1.
CaseNotHPOs: N/A
CaseNotHPOFreeText: N/A
CasePreviousTesting: The patient's family was included in two previous linkage mapping studies (PMID: 1355560, PMID: 8301646).
CaseMethod1: Linkage mapping
CaseMethod2: Sanger sequencing
CaseGenotypingMethod: The patient's family was included in two previous linkage mapping studies (PMID: 1355560, PMID: 8301646), and the proband was genotyped in this study by Sanger sequencing of PCR products from the 9 exons of GPR143.
Variant: The proband harbors the NM_000273.3(GPR143):c.216_232del (p.Ala73fs) variant in the hemizygous state.
ClinVar: 98619
gnomAD: This variant was not found in gnomAD v2.1.1.
VariantEvidence: NM_000273.3(GPR143):c.216_232del (p.Ala73fs) is a frameshift variant in exon 1 of 9, and is predicted to trigger nonsense-mediated decay or to at least truncate the C-terminal 82% of the protein product.
CaseAddInfo: The variant observed in this proband has been previously reported in two other studies (PMID: 1355560, PMID: 8301646).
