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.
