Reference

Type 1 41 different MPL mutations in CAMT

Autosomal recessive Germline mutation

Completely lose or significantly reduce MPL function

Thrombocytopenia

CAMT (about 91.8%)

(25-30)

Type 2 S505N

Autosomal dominant Germline mutation, rare somatic mutation

Autonomous activate MPL function

Thrombocytosis

HT (about 54.5%)

(22,24,34,35)

K39N,P106L

Autosomal dominant with incomplete penetrance and autosomal recessive with possible mild heterozygote manifestation germline mutation

Reduce binding affinity to ligand thrombopoietin

Thrombocytosis

HT (7% of African-American individuals and 6% of Arab individuals)

(40,41)

Type 3 W515L/K

Somatic mutation

Autonomous activate MPL function

Thrombocytosis

MPNs (about1% in ET and 5% in PMF, rare in PV), AMKL with myelofibrosis (about 25%),rare in RARS-t

(48-50,57,59,66-69)

Type 4 W515A/R, T487A,Y252H

Somatic mutation

Autonomous activate MPL function

Thrombocytosis

Rare in MPNs、 AMKL and ET respectively

(52,57,59,70,71)

A519T,L510P and A506T

Somatic mutation

No function or maybe regulate other genetic events.
