Gene

Oca2

Species
Mus musculus
Symbol
Oca2
Name
oculocutaneous albinism II
Synonyms
  • D7H15S12
  • D7Icr28RN
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Predicted to enable chloride channel activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including melanin biosynthetic process; melanocyte differentiation; and spermatid development. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane; endosome membrane; and lysosomal membrane. Predicted to be active in melanosome membrane. Is expressed in brain and eye. Used to study oculocutaneous albinism. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in actinic keratosis; oculocutaneous albinism type II; pigmentation disease; skin cancer (multiple); and squamous cell carcinoma. Orthologous to human OCA2 (OCA2 melanosomal transmembrane protein).
MGI Description
PHENOTYPE: Mutations generally result in varying degrees of coat and eye pigment dilution. Specific alleles produce cleft palate, reproductive, endocrine or neurological disorders, and/or lethality. [provided by MGI curators]
