“…9 Classic GT has autosomal recessive (AR) inheritance and is caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous mutations in the ITGA2B or ITGB3 genes. 2,4,[10][11][12] Mutations include missense, nonsense, and in-or out-of-frame insertions or deletions often affecting splice sites; duplications, large deletions, and complex rearrangements, although rare, have all been reported. Their effect is to block the synthesis of αIIb or β3, prevent complex formation, or interfere with αIIbβ3 trafficking in megakaryocytes (MKs).…”
