Genes affected

PF4 (HGNC:8861): (platelet factor 4) This gene encodes a member of the CXC chemokine family. This chemokine is released from the alpha granules of activated platelets in the form of a homotetramer which has high affinity for heparin and is involved in platelet aggregation. This protein is chemotactic for numerous other cell type and also functions as an inhibitor of hematopoiesis, angiogenesis and T-cell function. The protein also exhibits antimicrobial activity against Plasmodium falciparum. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2014]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 0 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.13265333).

Ambry Genetics

Nov 22, 2022

The c.38G>A (p.G13E) alteration is located in exon 1 (coding exon 1) of the PF4 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 38, causing the glycine (G) at amino acid position 13 to be replaced by a glutamic acid (E). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
