Identification of Pathogenic Mutation c.286dupA in TYR Gene in an Individual with Oculocutaneous Albinism Using Exome Sequencing [PDF]
Introduction: Oculocutaneous Albinism is a hereditary disease with an autosomal recessive pattern. The incidence of this disease is about 1 in every 17 thousand births. Most of the affected people in Iran are the result of consanguineous marriages. White

Genetic analyses of oculocutaneous albinism types 1 and 2 with four novel mutations
Background Oculocutaneous albinism (OCA) is a human autosomal-recessive hypopigmentation disorder with hypopigmentation in the skin, hair, and eyes. OCA1 and OCA2 are caused by mutations of the TYR and OCA2 genes, respectively, which are responsible for ...

Oculocutaneous Albinism in a Finetooth Shark, Carcharhinus isodon, from Mobile Bay, Alabama [PDF]
Albinism has been documented in numerous species of teleosts (Dawson, 1964, 1966, 1971; Dawson and Heal, 1971). However, published accounts of oculocutaneous albino elasmobranches are relatively rare.
