Deprecated MTHFR gene p.Ala677Val [Presence] in Blood or Tissue by Molecular genetics method   21710-9

LOINC Code


LOINC code21710-9
nameDeprecated MTHFR gene p.Ala677Val [Presence] in Blood or Tissue by Molecular genetics method
statusDEPRECATED
status reasonErroneous - This term was meant to represent the amino acid change at codon 222 that is associated with the C to T nucleotide change at position 677 in the MTHFR gene. However, the term was created erroneously in that the codon was specified as 677, instead of 222, and there is an existing term for the C to T change at 677.

Fully-Specified Name

componentMTHFR gene.p.Ala677Val
propertyPrThr  =  Present or threshold:  The Property PrThr stands for “Presence or Threshold”, meaning either a) the actual presence or absence of an analyte, or b) that the amount of analyte detected is over some predetermined threshold.
timePt  =  Point in time:  To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements.
systemBld/Tiss
    Bld  =  Whole blood
    Tiss  =  Tissue, unspecified
scaleOrd  =  Ordinal:  Ordered categorical responses, e.g., 1+, 2+, 3+; positive, negative; reactive, indeterminate, nonreactive.
methodMolgen  =  Molecular Genetics:  General class of methods used to detect genetic attributes on a molecular basis including RFL, PCR and other methods.

Associated Observations

LOINC codes that represent optional associated observation(s) for a clinical observation or laboratory test. A LOINC term may represent a single associated observation or panel containing several associated observations.

History/Usage

first released
last updated2.65
last change typeDEL  - delete (deprecate)
change reasonChanged Component name to align with the current HGVS recommendations to use the three letter codes for amnio acids. In the shortname, we kept the single letter codes.; The PrThr property is used for LOINC terms whose results are reported using an ordered categorical scale, regardless of whether or not an internal threshold was used to make that determination. This change was approved by the Laboratory LOINC Committee in June 2016.
