Classification rationale
1

The MPL c.1544G>T (p.Trp515Leu; p.W515L) variant has been reported in somatic myeloproliferative neoplasms and is listed in ClinVar with one Pathogenic submission and one Uncertain significance submission.

This variant is rare in population databases, with gnomAD v2.1 allele frequency 7.98378e-06 (0.00080%, 2/250508) and gnomAD v4.1 allele frequency 1.23979e-05 (0.00124%, 20/1613182), both below the 0.1% PM2 threshold.

Available functional evidence supports an abnormal activating effect, as p.W515L is described as an activating MPL variant and OncoKB classifies it as oncogenic with gain-of-function activity.
