To aid diagnose bone marrow disorders called as myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) in which the bone marrow creates too many of one or more types of blood cells.

The Janus Kinase 2 gene commonly known as the JAK2 provides commands to cells for creating the JAK2 protein. This protein helps promote cell growth and division and is especially crucial for controlling blood cell production inside the bone marrow. The bone marrow disorders caused JAK2 mutations are known as myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) in which the bone marrow produces way too many WBCs, RBCs and Platelets. Some of the MPNs most commonly associated with JAK2 mutations are: Polycythaemia vera, Essential thrombocythemia and Primary myelofibrosis.
