Multiple Alleles

Inheritance pattern in which there are more than two alleles for a particular trait; each individual has only two of all possible alleles.

HERC2

A gene associated with the regulation of several proteins, notably impacting pigmentation and neurological functions.

Epistatic Interactions

Genetic interactions where the effect of one gene is modified by one or several other genes, which can mask or suppress the expression of the first gene.

OCA2

OCA2 refers to a gene related to pigmentation in humans, mutations of which can lead to type 2 albinism.
