Blood
The Albinism panel analyzes 27 genes associated with the oculocutaneous, ocular, and syndromic forms of this genetic disease characterized by hypopigmentation of the skin, hair, and eyes, along with visual disturbances and, in some cases, systemic manifestations.
Through massive sequencing (NGS) with detection of SNVs, indels and CNVs, it is possible to identify variants in genes involved in the synthesis, transport and maturation of melanin, as well as in disorders of lysosomal trafficking.
Featured genes: TYR, OCA2, TYRP1, SLC45A2, GPR143, LYST, HPS1, HPS4, AP3B1.
