Abstract excerpt
Oculocutaneous albinism type 1 (OCA1), resulting from pathogenic variants in the tyrosinase (TYR) gene, refers to a group of phenotypically heterogeneous autosomal recessive disorders characterized by a partial or a complete absence of pigment in the skin/hair and is also associated with common developmental eye defects. In this study, we identified two novel compound heterozygous TYR variants from a Chinese...
