Inherited Thrombocytopenias
- Inherited Thrombocytopenia
A group of conditions causing a lifelong low platelet count, linked to genes such as MYH9, ANKRD26, ETV6, WAS, MPL, RBM8A, GATA1 and MECOM, and inherited in dominant, recessive or X-linked patterns.
- ClinGen rates the link moderate
- 2 GenCC submitters rate it definitive or strong
What knowing changes
A genetic diagnosis avoids misdiagnosis as immune thrombocytopenia, with unnecessary steroids or spleen removal, and guides monitoring for related kidney, hearing or blood problems.
How FLI1 is laid out
- Coding sequence
- Untranslated region
- Intron
- Direction of transcription
- Known disease-causing sites
- Stretches short reads find hard
Exons of the gene's MANE Select transcript (release v1.5), from NCBI and EMBL-EBI, on the GRCh38 reference genome.
Chromosome bands from UCSC's GRCh38 ideogram (2022-10-29).
Nearby genes from Ensembl release 116, on GRCh38.
Exons make up 3.8 kb of the gene's 119.2 kb; 1,359 of those bases code for the protein.
How a genome test reads FLI1
3
positions in FLI1 where ClinVar classes a change as pathogenic or likely pathogenic
None of them falls in a region short reads find hard.
A whole genome covers all 119.2 kb of FLI1, introns included, not only the 3.8 kb of exons.
