Colony stimulating factor 3 receptor
CSF3R
  
Bi-directional sequencing of exons 14 and 17 of the CSF3R gene which includes detection of the common mutation T618I (also known as T595I).
  

CSF3R mutations are newly-identified genetic markers detected in 59% of chronic neutrophilic leukemia (CNL) or atypical chronic myeloid leukemia (aCML) that are useful for diagnosis and classification of these disorders. Identification of specific mutations may suggest the class of kinase inhibitors to which the tumor will be sensitive. Mutations are also detected in 30-80% of leukemia in patients with severe congenital neutropenia (SCN).
