LOINC Code


LOINC code53761-3
nameJAK2 gene.p.Val617Phe mutant/Normal in Blood or Tissue by Molecular genetics method
descriptionThe JAK2 gene is located on chromosome 9 and the V617F point mutation causes valine to phenylalanine substitution at position 617. JAK2 is a cytoplasmic protein, with the V617F mutation resulting in constitutive JAK2 activity and enhanced JAK2-signal transducers and activators of transcription signaling. The V617F point mutation causes the activation of these pathways, leading to uncontrolled cell proliferation, resulting in myeloproliferative disorders. This mutation is seen in most patients with polycythemia vera and about half of the patients with essential thromobcytopenia and idiopathic myelofibrosis. Mutation has also been found in some patients with Philadelphia chromosome negative Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia(CML), Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia(CMML), chronic neutrophilic leukemia, megakaryocytic leukemia, and some patients with myelodysplastic syndrome(MDS). Information from the American Society of Hematology (www.hematology.org; accessed 2007 03 02.) and ARUP Laboratories (2007 10 24).

propertyRelRto  =  Relative Ratio
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
scaleQn  =  Quantitative:  The result of the test is a numeric value that relates to a continuous numeric scale. Reported either as an integer, a ratio, a real number, or a range. The test result value may optionally contain a relational operator from the set {<=, <, >, >=}. Valid values for a quantitative test are of the form "7", "-7", "7.4", "-7.4", "7.8912", "0.125", "<10", "<10.15", ">12000", 1-10, 1:256
methodMolgen  =  Molecular Genetics:  General class of methods used to detect genetic attributes on a molecular basis including RFL, PCR and other methods.
