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.

Variant summary: MPL c.769C>T (p.Arg257Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Fibronectin type III domain (IPR003961) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 6e-05 in 250774 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in MPL causing Congenital Amegakaryocytic Thrombocytopenia (6e-05 vs 0.0024), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.769C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Congenital Amegakaryocytic Thrombocytopenia (example, VandenOudenrijn_2000, Lo_2018, Andres_2018). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in impaired signal transduction (Tijssen_2008). Two 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. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 257 of the MPL protein (p.Arg257Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs121913611, gnomAD 0.009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with congenital amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia (PMID: 10971406, 28859041). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 14156). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on MPL protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MPL function (PMID: 18422784, 20188141). This variant disrupts the p.Arg257 amino acid residue in MPL. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with MPL-related conditions (PMID: 16470591), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
