Abstract: Abstract Homozygosity/compound heterozygosity for loss of function mutations in neurobeachin-like 2 (NBEAL2) is causative for Gray platelet syndrome (GPS; MIM #139090), characterized by thrombocytopenia and large platelets lacking α-granules and cargo. Most GPS-associated NBEAL2 mutations… read more here.

Abstract: In X-linked thrombocytopenia with thalassemia (XLTT; OMIM 314050), caused by the mutation p.R216Q in exon 4 of the GATA1 gene, male hemizygous patients display macrothrombocytopenia, bleeding diathesis and a β-thalassemia trait. Herein, we describe findings… read more here.
