What gene causes albinism?
Ocular albinism (OA1) is caused by a genetic defect on chromosome 11 of the GPR143 gene. Oculocutaneous albinism type 2 (OCA2 or P gene albinism) results from a genetic defect on chromosome 15 in the P protein that helps the tyrosinase enzyme to function. Oculocutaneous albinism type 3 (OCA3) is rarely described and results from a genetic defect on chromosome 9 in TYRP1, a protein related to tyrosinase. Oculocutaneous albinism type 4 (OCA4) results from a genetic defect in chromosome 5 at position 13.3, in the SLC45A2 protein that helps the tyrosinase enzyme to function.
What does recessive albinism mean?
An Autosomal recessive pattern is one in which certain genes of the X sex chromosome are turned off, autosomal is in reference to the X chromosome and the fact that the genes are turned off is indicated by the recessive. So in the case of Albinism the pigmentation genes in the X chromosome are turned off causing the various side effects.
What chromosomes can be affected by changes in chromosome numbers?
