Cytopenias and congenital anaemias
Gene: U2AF1Added 'somatic' tag since AML phenotype is the result of somatic variants in U2AF1 (e.g. PMID:22158538, PMID:22389253).Created: 9 Mar 2017, 3:25 p.m.
Comment on list classification: Kept rating as Red: OMIM, further literature (e.g. PMID:21909114, and PMID:23029227) and COSMIC supports a somatic cause for the haematological phenotype.Created: 9 Mar 2017, 3:15 p.m.
Somatic variants only, reported in COSMIC cancer gene census.Created: 9 Mar 2017, 3:07 p.m.
Graubert et al. (2012, PMID:22158538) identified heterozygous somatic mutations affecting residue ser34 (S34F or S34Y) of the U2AF1 gene in bone marrow cells derived from 13 of 150 cases of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS; 614286).Created: 9 Mar 2017, 3:06 p.m.
