MPIG6B
protein-codingmegakaryocyte and platelet inhibitory receptor G6b
Gene summary
This gene is a member of the immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily and is located in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class III region. The protein encoded by this gene is a glycosylated, plasma membrane-bound cell surface receptor, but soluble isoforms encoded by some transcript variants have been found in the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi before being secreted. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

MPIG6B was first reported in relation to autosomal recessive Thrombocytopenia, anemia, and myelofibrosis in 2017 (Melhem et al., 2017; PMID: 27743390). At least 5 unique variants (e.g. missense, splicing, nonsense, and frameshift) have been reported in humans. Evidence supporting this gene disease relationship includes case-level data, segregation data, and experimental data. Variants in this gene have been reported in at least 6 probands in 3 publications (PMIDs: 27743390, 29898956, 31276734). Variants in this gene segregated with disease in 7 additional family members. This gene-disease association is supported by its enhanced expression in lymphoid tissue (PMID: 17311996), its inhibitory biochemical function in platelet activation (PMID: 17311996), and mouse models (including knockout, knock-in, megakaryocyte specific conditional knockout, and humanized models) which recapitulate human disease (PMIDs: 23112346, 23509158, 29891536, 29898956). In summary, MPIG6B is definitively associated with autosomal recessive Thrombocytopenia, anemia, and myelofibrosis.

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type
Statistics based on transcript NM_138272.3. Only rare variants are included.
We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.
Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

- Function
- FUNCTION: Inhibitory receptor that acts as a critical regulator of hematopoietic lineage differentiation, megakaryocyte function and platelet production (PubMed:12665801, PubMed:17311996, PubMed:27743390). Inhibits platelet aggregation and activation by agonists such as ADP and collagen-related peptide (PubMed:12665801). This regulation of megakaryocate function as well as platelet production ann activation is done through the inhibition (via the 2 ITIM motifs) of the receptors CLEC1B and GP6:FcRgamma signaling (PubMed:17311996). Appears to operate in a calcium-independent manner (PubMed:12665801). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12665801, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17311996, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27743390}.;
