Nucleophosmin (NPM1, also known as nuclear phosphoprotein B23, numatrin) is a gene that encodes a phosphoprotein, which is involved in the regulation of the interactions of ARF and p53. Fusions, missense mutations, nonsense mutations, frameshift insertions and deletions, and in-frame deletions and insertions are observed in cancers such as acute myeloid leukemia and skin cancer.

NPM1 is altered in 0.99% of all cancers with acute myeloid leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia with mutated NPM1, lung adenocarcinoma, colon adenocarcinoma, and endometrial endometrioid adenocarcinoma having the greatest prevalence of alterations [3].

NPM1 GENIE Cases - Top Diseases

The most common alterations in NPM1 are NPM1 Mutation (0.34%), NPM1 Exon 12 Mutation (0.11%), NPM1 Amplification (0.10%), NPM1 L287delinsPV (2.19%), and NPM1 Loss (0.05%) [3].
