Entrez Gene Number
Entrez Gene SummaryMegakaryocytopoiesis is the cellular development process that leads to platelet production. The protein encoded by this gene is a humoral growth factor that is necessary for megakaryocyte proliferation and maturation, as well as for thrombopoiesis. This protein is the ligand for MLP/C_MPL, the product of myeloproliferative leukemia virus oncogene.

UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: SwissProt: P40225 # Lineage-specific cytokine affecting the proliferation and maturation of megakaryocytes from their committed progenitor cells. It acts at a late stage of megakaryocyte development. It may be the major physiological regulator of circulating platelets.
SIZE: 353 amino acids; 37823 Da
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted.
DOMAIN: SwissProt: P40225 Two-domain structure with an erythropoietin-like N- terminal and a Ser/Pro/Thr-rich C-terminal.
DISEASE: SwissProt: P40225 # Defects in THPO are a cause of essential thrombocythemia (ET) [MIM:187950]. ET is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait which is characterized by elevated platelet levels due to sustained proliferation of megakaryocytes, and frequently lead to thrombotic and haemorrhagic complications.
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the EPO/TPO family.
