Genes affected
MPL (HGNC:7217): (MPL proto-oncogene, thrombopoietin receptor) In 1990 an oncogene, v-mpl, was identified from the murine myeloproliferative leukemia virus that was capable of immortalizing bone marrow hematopoietic cells from different lineages. In 1992 the human homologue, named, c-mpl, was cloned. Sequence data revealed that c-mpl encoded a protein that was homologous with members of the hematopoietic receptor superfamily. Presence of anti-sense oligodeoxynucleotides of c-mpl inhibited megakaryocyte colony formation. The ligand for c-mpl, thrombopoietin, was cloned in 1994. Thrombopoietin was shown to be the major regulator of megakaryocytopoiesis and platelet formation. The protein encoded by the c-mpl gene, CD110, is a 635 amino acid transmembrane domain, with two extracellular cytokine receptor domains and two intracellular cytokine receptor box motifs . TPO-R deficient mice were severely thrombocytopenic, emphasizing the important role of CD110 and thrombopoietin in megakaryocyte and platelet formation. Upon binding of thrombopoietin CD110 is dimerized and the JAK family of non-receptor tyrosine kinases, as well as the STAT family, the MAPK family, the adaptor protein Shc and the receptors themselves become tyrosine phosphorylated.

Congenital amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia Pathogenic:3
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpOct 25, 2021Variant summary: MPL c.127C>T (p.Arg43X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.2e-05 in 251424 control chromosomes. c.127C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Congenital Amegakaryocytic Thrombocytopenia (example, Ballmaier_2001, Germeshausen_2006). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

MPL-related disorder Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesApr 23, 2024The MPL c.127C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg43*). This variant has been reported in the homozygous and compound heterozygous states in multiple individuals with congenital amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia (Table 4, Ballmaier et al. 2001. PubMed ID: 11133753; Table 1, Germeshausen et al. 2006. PubMed ID: 16470591; Savoia et al. 2007. PubMed ID: 17666371). This variant has also been observed in the heterozygous state in an individual with lung adenocarcinoma (Table S2, Huang et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29625052). This variant is reported in 0.018% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. Nonsense variants in MPL are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaOct 04, 2018The MPL c.127C>T (p.Arg43Ter) variant is a stop-gained variant predicted to result in premature termination of the protein. The variant has been reported in three studies in which it is identified in a total of six individuals with congenital amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia, all with a severe phenotype, in one individual in a compound heterozygous state and in five individuals in a homozygous state (Ballmaier et al. 2001; Germeshausen et al. 2006; Savoia et al. 2007). The p.Arg43Ter variant has not been reported in individuals with essential thrombocythemia. The p.Arg43Ter variant was absent from 50 controls and is reported at a frequency of 0.000041 in the total population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium. Savoia et al. (2007) demonstrated that platelet surface expression of other glycoproteins was normal in one individual carrying the variant but MPL expression was scarcely detectable. Serum TPO levels were elevated and in colony-forming unit assays, platelet c-MPL and bone marrow colonies were reduced. Based on the evidence and potential impact of stop-gained variants, the p.Arg43Ter variant is classified as pathogenic for MPL-related disorders. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. -

Essential thrombocythemia;C1327915:Congenital amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 28, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg43*) in the MPL gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MPL are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 8073287, 11133753). This variant is present in population databases (rs148434485, gnomAD 0.02%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with congenital amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia (PMID: 11133753, 16470591). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 371574). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
