Summary

CSF3R (colony stimulating factor 3 receptor, HGNC:2439) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 1p34.3, encoding Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor receptor (Q99062). Receptor for granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (CSF3), essential for granulocytic maturation. In precision oncology, CSF3R T618I confers sensitivity to Ruxolitinib in Chronic Neutrophilic Leukemia (CIViC Level C).

The protein encoded by this gene is the receptor for colony stimulating factor 3, a cytokine that controls the production, differentiation, and function of granulocytes. The encoded protein, which is a member of the family of cytokine receptors, may also function in some cell surface adhesion or recognition processes. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. Mutations in this gene are a cause of Kostmann syndrome, also known as severe congenital neutropenia.

UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →

Function. Receptor for granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (CSF3), essential for granulocytic maturation. Plays a crucial role in the proliferation, differentiation and survival of cells along the neutrophilic lineage. In addition it may function in some adhesion or recognition events at the cell surface.

Subunit / interactions. Homodimer. The dimeric receptor binds two CSF3 molecules. Interacts with CEACAM1; down-regulates the CSF3R-STAT3 pathway through recruitment of PTPN6 that dephosphorylates CSF3R.

Subcellular location. Secreted Cell membrane.

Tissue specificity. One or several isoforms have been found in myelogenous leukemia cell line KG-1, leukemia U-937 cell line, in bone marrow cells, placenta, and peripheral blood granulocytes. Isoform GCSFR-2 is found only in leukemia U-937 cells. Isoform GCSFR-3 is highly expressed in placenta.

Post-translational modifications. N-glycosylated.

Disease relevance. Hereditary neutrophilia (NEUTROPHILIA) [MIM:162830] A form of lifelong, persistent neutrophilia, a condition characterized by an increase in the number of neutrophils in the blood. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Neutropenia, severe congenital 7, autosomal recessive (SCN7) [MIM:617014] A form of severe congenital neutropenia, a disorder of hematopoiesis characterized by maturation arrest of granulopoiesis at the level of promyelocytes with peripheral blood absolute neutrophil counts below 0.5 x 10(9)/l and early onset of severe bacterial infections. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Domain organisation. The WSXWS motif appears to be necessary for proper protein folding and thereby efficient intracellular transport and cell-surface receptor binding. The box 1 motif is required for JAK interaction and/or activation.

Miscellaneous. Mutations in CSF3R acquired in multipotent hematopoietic progenitor cells and resulting in truncated hyper-responsive forms of the receptor, have been identified in most cases of severe congenital neutropenia (SCN). Patients carrying these mutations are at risk for developing myelodysplastic syndromes and/or acute myeloid leukemia. Constitutive mutations leading to hyporesponsive forms of the receptor are responsible for the refractoriness to CSF3 treatment observed in some SCN patients.

Similarity. Belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family. Type 2 subfamily.
