Invitae | RCV003804749 | SCV004607580 | uncertain significance | Congenital amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia; Essential thrombocythemia | 2023-12-05 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 515 of the MPL protein (p.Trp515Ala). Information on the frequency of this variant in the gnomAD database is not available, as this variant may be reported differently in the database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with primary myelofibrosis (PMID: 19734947, 19996410, 20151976). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MPL function (PMID: 19996410, 26437785). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. |
