Abstract excerpt
Oculocutaneous albinism type 4 (OCA4) is traditionally classified as an autosomal recessive disorder. Although the human Y70H variant has recently been suggested to exert a dominant-negative effect, it remains unknown whether this represents an isolated rarity or a manifestation of a broader pathogenic principle. Here, we identified a common dominant-negative SLC45A2 mutation spectrum based on its intracellular...
