Research Interests Molecular analysis of albinism, analysis of complex genetic disorders
My research involves two major areas: the molecular analysis of pigment genes in humans, particularly those genes associated with oculocutaneous albinism (OCA), and the molecular analysis of genes associated with common genetic diseases. The latter area of research includes the analysis of genes involved solid organ transplantation rejection, and asthma. My research with OCA involves the analysis of several genes associated with pigment formation, including the tyrosinase gene (associated with OCA1), the P gene (associated with OCA2) and the TYRP1 gene (associated with OCA3). I am particularly interested in the missense mutations of tyrosinase, some of which result in partial enzymatic activity, and how they can help provide an understanding of the structure/function of this enzyme. This has led to my interest in computer modeling of the tyrosinase protein structure and involvement in helping determine the three dimensional structure of tyrosinase, as well as expression studies of tyrosinase mutations that produce residual activity enzymes, in an effort to further understand the structure/function of tyrosinase. This research is done in collaboration with Dr. Richard King and Dr. Carrie Wilmot.

Welcome to the homepage of the International Albinism Center at the University of Minnesota.
The International Albinism Center is a team of dedicated research professionals interested in understanding the basis of albinism in humans. We are a multi-disciplinary group of researchers that include interests in clinical genetics, molecular biology, ophthalmology, dermatology, and biochemistry, all with a central theme of understanding the cause and effect of albinism and other forms of pigment loss in humans. We have published several papers on different aspects of albinism as a result of this collaborative effort.
Facts About Albinism - Revised
This is an electronic copy of the publication Facts About Albinism written by Drs. Richard A. King, C. Gail Summers, James W. Haefemeyer and Bonnie LeRoy. This is a good source of basic information about albinism. This also contains a list of Definitions of Words at the end of the book. This is a link to a review paper on the different types of albinism and the affect of albinism on the eye.

http://www.caudata.org/axolotl/genetics.htm
The Axolotl is studied around the world for a number of reasons, as mentioned on the cover page of this site, but all of the traits which make it so suitable for study, as for all living things, are dependent on its genes. This page will attempt to give a brief overview of axolotl genetics, mainly from the viewpoint of the hobbyist, who tends to be most interested in colour.
In the same way that a/a results in a lack of melanophores, m/m (melanoid) results in a lack of iridophores. Such animals are very dark, with no reflective pigment cells at all. M/m or M/M would result in normal iridophore development. Animals homozygous for ax (i.e. ax/ax) are axanthic, meaning they have no visible xanthophores or iridophores. Such animals are almost as dark as melanoids. Animals homozygous for both the albino gene and the axanthic gene appear to be slightly off-white (yellowish). The following table summarises the colour genes.
You may have noticed the d gene. This gene is a developmental mutant and not a pigment mutant like the others. Animals homozygous or heterozygous for D produce large numbers of yellow xanthophores. In combination with melanophores, we get the wildtype colouration (dark brown/olive-green). However, in animals homozygous for d, the normal pigment cells are produced, but they never migrate off the neural crest of the embryonic animal, resulting in the white phenotype. This phenotype is white, but has dark eyes. It is known as leucistic. d/d in combination with the a/a mutation, gives a white albino.

ID: 1008536794.Ge Message:
Dear Rachel I am sorry for replying late. For nearly all types of albinism both parents must carry an albinism gene to have a child with albinism. Because the body has two sets of genes,a person may have normal pigmentation but carry the albinism gene. If a person has one gene for normal pigmentation and one gene for albinism, he or she will have enough genetic information to make normal pigment. The albinism gene is "recessive" it does not result in albinism unless a person has two copies of the gene for albinism and no copy of the gene that makes normal pigment. When both parents carry the gene, and neither parent has albinism, there is a one in four chance at each pregnancy that the baby will be born with albinism. This type of inheritance is called autosomal recessive inheritance. You could also check out some of these interesting links http://www.cbc.umn.edu/iac/

Albinism in Africa and human pigmentation genetics Principal Investigator: Prof Michele Ramsay Collaborators: Prof J Kromberg (Johannesburg - more recently Brisbane), Prof R Nicholls (Philadelphia), Dr R Sturm (Brisbane) and Dr W-H Li (Chicago), Dr S Kidson (Cape Town), Sr E Zwane (Johannesburg) The main objective of this project is to improve our understanding of the different steps involved in the pigmentary pathway through the study of naturally occurring human pigment disorders. Oculocutaneous albinism (OCA) is a common genetic disorder in Africa with major health implications in terms of increased susceptibility to early onset skin cancer and the need for special education in schools for the partially sighted. In South African blacks the prevalence of OCA is 1 in 3900. Two other types of oculocutaneous albinism have been shown to be relatively common in southern African blacks, namely brown and rufous OCA. Brown OCA (BOCA - MIM 203290) has been shown to be allelic to OCA2 in South African blacks, with the majority of affected individuals being compound heterozygotes, with one 2.7kb deletion allele. Rufous OCA (ROCA - MIM 278400) has been shown to be caused by mutations in the tyrosinase-related protein 1 locus on chromosome 9p23. Two mutations, S166X and 368delA account for 0.95 of mutations in 19 unrelated affected individuals. Current projects are aimed at identifying the promoter region of the P gene in order to search for OCA2 and BOCA mutations and at understanding the molecular basis of ephelides (pigmented patches) (see photograph) that occur in a large proportion of OCA2 affected individuals.

Population Genetics
Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium
Let's assume that a population of individuals of the same species mate together. We will make the following simplifying assumptions: 1) There are no mutations. 2) There is no migration into or out from the population. 3) There are a very large number of individuals. 4) They mate randomly. 5) There is no natural selection Suppose that the probability of a dominant allele "A" is p and the probability of the recessive allele "a" is q. (Remember, probabilities range from to 1.) Of course, we know that p+q = 1 because a particular sperm or egg must either have "A" 0r "a" with 100% certainty unless this gene is located on a sex chromosome. Since the sperm and eggs combine randomly, the chance of a zygote having genotype "AA" is p , of having genotype "Aa" is 2pq, and of having "aa" is q . Just as a given haploid sperm or egg must have either "A" or "a" gives p+q = 1, a given zygote (and the resulting adult) having to have genotype "AA", "Aa", or "aa" gives p + 2pq + q = 1. (You may remember this from algebra as the binomial theorem.)

oculocutaneous albinism and griscelli syndrome Home Forums Privacy Advertising ... Home On this page... Albinism - oculocutaneous albinism Albinism is actually a group of several subtly different conditions that have a hereditary error of melanin metabolism in common. Any genetic abnormality of the melanin pigment system in which the synthesis of melanin is reduced or absent can be called albinism. The reduction in melanin synthesis can affect the skin, hair follicles, and eyes, resulting in oculocutaneous albinism (OCA). If the skin and hair are normally pigmented and just the eye pigmentation is affected, the condition is called ocular albinism (OA). There are two types of OCA, type I and type II. The classification of oculocutaneous albinism depends upon the nature of the underlying genetic defect. When a mutated tyrosinase gene produces inactive, less active, or temperature-sensitive tyrosinase, its phenotype is described as tyrosinase-negative (type I-A), yellow-mutant (type I-B), or temperature-sensitive (type I-TS) OCA, respectively. Mutation of the P gene encoding the tyrosine-transporting membrane protein probably occurs in tyrosinase-positive OCA (type II).
